WTMJ - Today's TMJ4 Weather Plus Weather Center (The Paul Joseph Weather Center)

WITI - FOX6 Weather Center

WISN - Weather Watch 12 Weather Center

WDJT - First Alert Weather

 

These are the names to the best to my knowledge. WTMJ re-named their weather center after Paul Joseph when he retired. The rest are not very inventive at all.

WTVA: "TrueView Weather Center" (they just bought the TrueView system the early fall '06), before they were "Earthwatch Weather"

 

WCBI: "WCBI First Alert" (On one third digital sub-channel (MY Network and The CW take up the other 2), they run AccuWeather's broadcast service). They also heavily promote their "Vipir" system.

 

Jackson, MS

 

WAPT: Storm Shield 16 Weather Center

 

WJTV: Stormteam 12 Vipir Weather

WTVW: Fox 7 AccuWeather Center (They also, here in the last year or so, started doing "The Weather Outside" in their "backyard" at least once during their newscasts).

 

WFIE: "14 First Alert Dual Doppler" (they recently installed a second station-owned doppler radar atop (or near) the hospital in Owensboro, KY ).

 

WEHT: News 25 First Warning Doppler Weather Center (originally the name came from the system the station bought (in the early-90s, and which is now ubiquitous across the country) that show the county-by-county storm warning map. When they purchased their own doppler radar system a few years later, the name stuck around)
