The Weather Channel 2003 music mix (Daytime)

[@uncannywalnut]

My dad used to absolutely blare this on Sunday mornings when I was nine. I mean, like you could hear the tv from the sidewalk.

[@hedanhercules]

Damn boomers

[@aquarianwarrior77]

Lol

[@sega64official]

Your dad sounds cool

June 12, 2003 i was 20 years old, just graduated high school(yeah i was late 😂) and started college. Parents just bought a house two weeks earlier and at 6:50 p.m. when this was on, i was most likely already high or buzzin from a few beers OR working at Outback steakhouse bussing tables until closing time only to go to an after work pool party for awhile then home and up early to go to school and do it all over again. Love the nostalgia! Keep up the great work✌️😎👍

[@jarrett7774]

I was 19. I was so lucky to have what I had at that time but I didn't even realize it 😔

[@MartyM.]

@@jarrett7774 Me too. I can't believe what I was missing at the time and didn't realize back then. I had no idea what kind of great music was played over the years on The Weather Channel. ;(

[@diamondbeats2024]

I like how the weather guys talk on the official weather channel back then. Distinguishes different from todays. These were the best. I miss having a weather channel….36hr forecasts just make sense

[@michaelgoff4504]

There is going to be a severe thunderstorm in my city tonight. *Listens to soothing, jazzy music.* Ahhh.

[@aquarianwarrior77]

Weird as a jazz fusion and vaporwave and weather channel fan to click it and it’s the forecast for the area you grew up in

[@MindofUhuru]

Ahhh the memories! Listening on a rainy day from Arusha Tanzania, East Africa.

[@Stormviation]

That description is something I definitely relate to since I used to be scared of thunderstorms as a kid too. Yet when I watched TWC and listened to the music being played a lot, it always put me at ease. You have some great song choices for this mix!

[@alexthetiger7806]

I'm glad we're not alone in that. And thank you! These were definitely some of my favorites. Especially Lucky Charm by The Rippingtons. I like to think that song seeped into my brain and caused me to be obsessed with that band 20 years later haha

[@Stormviation]

@@alexthetiger7806 Oh wow, I got into The Rippingtons because of TWC too! It even made me appreciate other artists like Tom Scott, Trammel Starks, 3rd Force, Spyro Gyra, and plenty more.

[@alexthetiger7806]

@@Stormviation Me too! I grew up on punk and ska, but at 27, I'm a smooth jazz fan (honestly, I love all types of music, but smooth jazz is a big one for me now). Trammell Starks, Brian Hughes, Joe Sample, Ficara, Ryan Farish, and Spyro Gyra are some of my favorites from TWC. But Rippingtons is definitely number 1 for me. And recently, I've been getting into 3rd Force as well!

[@Stormviation]

@@alexthetiger7806 Oh nice, that’s awesome to hear! Despite me being a 90’s techno/drum & bass music person, smooth jazz has always been a genre that’s never let me down. Even when I play Gran Turismo, just hearing the smooth jazz songs that play in the game made me love it even more. And even though I’m 22 listening to that type of genre still, I don’t feel embarrassed about it and instead feel grateful that I came across it as a kid!

[@alexthetiger7806]

@@Stormviation And you play Gran Turismo too? The similarities keep adding up haha. I was obsessed with Gran Turismo as a kid. My first one was GT3, I got it for Christmas 2002, along with our first Playstation 2. I played it all through 2003. Then got GT4 a couple years later and put in hundreds of hours into that. Those games and TWC really did introduce us to a great genre. Speaking of 90s techno, have you ever played a game called Toy Commander? Was a great game that had a killer soundtrack I think you'd like

[@taureanfighter]

Loving the new playlists and formats for the lists at the end! I became a Weather Channel fan in the 90s when I was in elementary school and into middle school. Something about having the channel playing while I was reading books or just needed some noise in the background. Remembering TWC now as an adult, it brings back a different kind of feeling and a stronger appreciation for the music.

[@DiSCERiTY]

So nostalgic

[@Labrli]

I wish TWC stuck to this format and not what it is today :

[@Joker22593]

That's what happens when a TV channel is owned by a computer company for the sole purpose of gathering large datasets for their AI projects.

[@aMiyafuji]

Starting with The Rippingtons. Absolute classic TWC

[@smogity]

Right on, great jams!

[@charlestonpinballarcade]

Shout out Trenton! If more people listened to the weather channel JAMZ, there would be less crime….🎉🎉🎉

[@roland_the_cursor]

Heh.. I would keep the weather channel on for not only the music, but to learn about different places around the world! I'm from Toronto, Canada..

[@HeyKatebbz]

Smooth jams… thanks TWC and thank you

[@LadyNightmare33]

Craig Chaquico - Could We Fall in Love playing around the 6:00 mark got my "like" ...good video. :)

[@jarrett7774]

Golden age of TWC - early-mid '00's. Miss those days!

[@candlelight1.277]

Yes❗

[@gehenna4346]

Thanks for this 🐬🌎🌧️
