Blizzard 2015 Coverage in Connecticut

Coverage of the 2015 Blizzard from CT. Channel 3 WFSB named it Colbie. The Weather Channel named it Juno.

NBC 30 pre-empted Ellen at 4PM.
WTNH 8 pre-empted Judge Judy at 4PM.
WFSB 3 stayed with Dr. Oz at 4PM.
FOX 61 always runs news at 4PM.

NBC 30 pre-empted Extra and Access Hollywood 7PM-8PM.

NBC 30 will be doing a 1 hour newscast at 11PM tonight. Not sure what's going on with The Tonight Show whether they're just going to join it in progress or time-shift the rest of the lineup.
 
Boston coverage

FOX 25's coverage started at 10PM and continued all night long; it appears COX is seeking to use the storm to let the market know it means business. WHDH aired Tonight on a delayed basis at midnight after its extended coverage. Not sure what the other stations did or if any stations preempted prime time for storm coverage (I was paying more attention to my home market of Portland.)

On WFSB they run The Late Late Show on a delay and it airs 1:07AM-2:07AM. At 2AM they cut if it off with a live update from Bruce Deprest. Then they went back to The Late Late Show. They came on with local news at 4AM and have been on ever since.

On NBC 30 they ran a taped update at 2AM with Garret Argianas (Sic). After that they went into Carson Daly's late nite show which normally airs until 2:05AM. They too came on at 4AM and have been on ever since.

FOX 61 comes on at 4AM everyday and has been on ever since.

I don't know what time WTNH came on today, but they've been on all morning.
