PRESS RELEASE (THE WEATHER CHANNEL)

February 6, 2017

The Weather Channel and Al Roker Team up for a two-part special Weather Hacks.

WHAT: When Mother Nature flashes her fury, do you know how to stay safe? Hosted by Al Roker, Weather Hacks gives practical tips, tricks, hacks and plain old advice on what you can do before, during or after a major weather event that could save money, your home or even your life.  

With climate change, we can expect to see an increase in extreme weather phenomena. In 2016, there were 15 weather and climate disaster events with losses exceeding $1 billion across the country. The weather is always changing. The best you can do is be prepared.

Weather Hacks is produced by Al Roker Entertainment and features two one-hour episodes. The second episode will air later this year.

WHERE/WHEN: "Weather Hacks” premieres Sunday, Feb. 12 at 10 p.m. ET on The Weather Channel.
