The Weather Channel stopped its live broadcasting this morning due to a security incident that lasted for at least 90 minutes. Details are scant at the moment and a tweet from the station does not lift the haze, informing only that it was the victim of “a malicious software attack on the network”” Restoring the normal program was possible thanks to backup systems. Some viewers complained on Twitter that the Weather Wizard was first on the list of potential culprits. Others chirped that this event is the work of someone that blamed the station for the actual weather.”
