From the Mailbag: Channel 3 Tower

From: Donna in Cleveland Heights

Q: Why is the "3" on your building's tower blue sometimes and sometimes red? I notice this as I'm driving past the station.

A: The change in color is meant to alert people living downtown or driving on the Shoreway that bad weather is approaching. The "3" is blue when good weather is happening. If the "3" turns red, the Channel 3 Weather Plus Team is tracking inclement weather that you need to know about - usually meaning a warning of some kind has been issued for the area.

So be sure to immediately tune to Channel 3 or Weather Plus on cable or Digital Channel 3.2, or log-on to WKYC.COM
