I posted this video because I have been a long-time viewer of News 5 Weather Plus and have subconsciously come to know and love all of the channel's seven songs. I think they're some of the best that have been aired on a (former) NBC Weather Plus channel.
WLWT 5 in Cincinnati is one of very few NBC-affiliated stations across the United States that continues to broadcast its own version of NBC Weather Plus although the service was officially shut-down on December 31, 2008. They call their localized version "News 5 Weather Plus".
As I live in Wayne county, IN, I am not officially in their coverage area (I'm just a few miles north of the furthest county that is, Fayette), but I am able to receive them all of the time via an OTA antenna. WLWT 5 is also the strongest channel that I receive. For some reason, it always beats out Dayton and Indianapolis, whose transmitters are about 15 miles closer.
Although I am not officially covered by the station, WLWT 5 is my favorite channel.
@olds33 That's awesome! I'm glad to see that there is somebody else out there who loves News 5 Weather Plus's songs just as much as my friend and I do! We loved the channel and were so disappointed when we found out that they changed it to whatever it is now. But at the same time I was so relieved I'd decided to record their songs and post them to YouTube before that happened so everyone who wanted to could still have access to them.

Awesome! I've been looking for these since they changed 5.2 to something else. My family and girlfriend just roll their eyes when I occasionally mention how much I loved News 5's weather channel songs (my favorite is Song 2). It's great to know I'm not the only one. You've made my day!
