Instructions for Using the System

Welcome to Super Doppler 10 Weather Watch.

Our system is automated. Here is how it works:

Call the automated system at 673-7316 . Enter your 4-digit code number and then your 4-digit passcode and follow the prompts. Your closing will air on both WAVY and FOX 43. If there is a problem with the automated system, you can call the newsroom at (757) 396-6180.

Your code will remain the same year after year. We ask only that you keep us informed of any changes in the personnel authorized to call in a closing. Those changes can be sent via email to the address listed below.

If you are a Preschool or Daycare facility, a Church or Religious facility, a Small Business with less than 100 employees, a Small Group or Organization, or a small Medical facility or Clinic, you will not air on WAVY-TV and FOX 43. However, you will be listed on our WAVY and FOX 43 websites, WAVY.com and FOX43TV.com.

You can also access the Automated List of Conditions and other information on WAVY.com. Follow the links to Weather and Closings. Please understand that we promote our websites extensively. The shear number of groups listed above combined renders our On-Air closings almost impossible to follow.

Please look over the following information we have on file. If you have any corrections, please mail or e-mail at weathercode@wavy.com the updated information.

Sincerely,
Karen Granneman, Chief Editor
