There were 9 cautions total....minus 2 for the stage ends and the original competition caution. So 6 cautions isnt that bad. The race didnt start until 4:15ish CDT which was about an hour after the "scheduled" start time so the fact it ended an hour after the "scheduled" end time on guides (4 hours) means with no lightning delay it would have finished "on time" (in reference to online guides)

FOX has MLS Soccer tonight from 8-10 Eastern, so syndie programming is affected out West.
On KDVR 31 in Denver, Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune, normally at 6:00 and 6:30 Mountain, are moved early to 1:30 and 2:00 PM in place of infomercials, preceding fellow syndie The World's Funniest Weather at 2:30. 3-4 is infomercials as usual and 4:00 is TMZ. After MLS, two local news specials titled "Front Range Courage" and "The Art of the Pandemic" will air at 8:00 and 8:30, followed by their usual 90 minutes of news (J!/Wheel normally move to 8:00/8:30 when pre-empted by sports if the slots are open). Ultimate Tag is locally delayed to 10:30 PM because of the 10:00 portion of the news.
On O&O KSAZ 10 in Phoenix, a half-hour episode of TMZ (probably a repeat of Friday's episode) is airing at 4:30 in place of one episode of Raw Travel. MLS is from 5-7 Arizona time, pre-empting an hour of news and TMZ's hour-long weekend edition. After MLS, an hour-long episode of Syndie Dateline (which normally is carried on sister KUTP My 45) will air at 7:00, and TMZ Weekend will air at 8:00.
On KVVU 5 in Las Vegas, for some reason, NCIS at 4:00 is replaced with an additional episode of Major Crimes, which also airs at 3:00. Simple enough, the 5-8 PM lineup: Made in Hollywood, Friends, Extra Weekend, TMZ Weekend, all slide back two hours.
On KTTV 11 in LA, Saturday afternoons are normally a 4-hour marathon of syndie Dateline from 1-5 PM. The latter two hours are pre-empted today. Sports Stars of Tomorrow will air at 3:00, and SSN Sports at 3:30, followed by what is normally their 5:00 newscast moved an hour early. After the game is local program FOX 11 Sports Wrap, and another airing of SSN Sports. TMZ and Extra, normally at 6 and 7, move to 8 and 9.

In NYC, a local fundraising special by the John A. Reisenbach foundation titled "Dear New York" aired on the Big Four tonight at 7:00 PM. Oddly, it was listed as a different entity on all four stations and each listing was a slightly different title. WCBS and WLNY refer to its as "Dear NYC". The only actual program affected was Jeopardy! on WABC 7, which is bumped to 5:00 AM Sunday. WCBS 2, WNBC 4, and WNYW 5 all currently air infomercials at 7:00, although WCBS used to air Entertainment Tonight then until recently, and WNBC often airs George to the Rescue for several weeks at a time before switching back to infomercials.
The special will repeat on WCBS's indie sister WLNY 10/55 Sunday at 2:00 PM, pre-empting the "Wednesday" episode of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, bumping it to 3:00 AM immediately following the "Thursday" and "Friday" episodes (WLNY delays the full week to the weekend, which they also did with Cops, which is what Millionaire replaced here and in several other cities).

it ended up affecting all cities across the US as the match was delayed by 45 minutes due to lightning. FOX signed off at 9:48 CDT (so 48 minutes past the "guide listed" time.
Yep, saw that. On the East Coast, Ultimate Tag aired delayed at 11:52 PM Eastern.
Jeopardy! and Wheel actually did not air. 1:30 was a Nuwave infomercial and 2:00 was Today's Homeowner with Danny Lipford (which normally airs Mondays at 3:30 AM). The Art of the Pandemic was JIP'd after MLS.
Dateline was JIP'd.
Friends was JIP'd.
FOX 11 Sports Wrap aired after MLS signed off, then TMZ was JIP'd about halfway through.
We've been JIP'd!!! 
not necessarily. FOX rolled Ultimate Tag at 10pm CDT for affiliates who dont have news or didnt want to show news. KMSP Minneapolis ran their usual 1 hour newscast after soccer (they actually ran it until 11pm) then Ultimate Tag started. Meanwhile KEYC-DT2 Mankato showed the last 10 minutes of their 9:30 program (game time with Boomer Esiason...which is also shown a couple times a weekend on sister station KMNF-LD1 NBC) then showed Ultimate Tag at 10pm CDT.
Per Vulture, most NBC network affiliates will preempt this week's 30 Rock reunion special, seeing the show as a promotion for the Peacock platform.

That isn't right. I want to see it. Hopefully, my affiliate is doing this.
Here's one that's not.

They couldn’t have put Wheel on WMYA in place of one of the three Family Feuds? That would’ve made too much sense I guess.
Come to think of it that must be the same show WBTV has been airing in place of On Your Side With Jamie Boll at 7:30 some Fridays. I have noticed it in the listings.
WCNC is also among those NBC affiliates that won't air tomorrow's 30 Rock episode; they're part of the Tegna group. Except for Raleigh/Durham (WRAL), the rest of the Carolinas won't see the episode until it hits the NBCU cable networks and Peacock on Friday. Hearst (WYFF Greenville SC & the aforementioned WXII), Gray (WIS Columbia, WMBF Myrtle Beach, WITN Washington NC, WECT Wilmington NC), and Nexstar (WCBD Charleston SC & WAVY Portsmouth/Hampton VA, whose coverage area includes NE North Carolina) control all of the other NBC affiliates in the Carolinas.
In Michigan:
WDIV (Detroit - Graham) is airing a local special about good things in the Detroit area.
WOOD (Grand Rapids - Nexstar) is airing a local COVID special.
WEYI (Flint-Saginaw-Bay City - Sinclair) is listed as airing the 30 Rock special, despite it being a sister station to WPBN and WNWO.
WILX (Lansing - Gray), WNDU (South Bend - Gray), and WLUC (Marquette - Gray) are airing Full Court Press Now: COVID Crisis.
WPBN (Traverse City-Cadillac-Alpena - Sinclair) and WNWO (Toledo - Sinclair) are airing two episodes of Family Feud.
The only part of Michigan that will get it on schedule is far southwest Michigan, as WMAQ (NBC O&O) is on cable in parts of Berrien County.

Same deal with Graham's KPRC here in Houston.
WMC 5 in Memphis is showing Full Court Press and WNBJ 39 in Jackson, TN is showing the 30 Rock special. Is this another example where the network has made the show "optional" like Fox is doing with weekend sports repeats? This is another case where it shouldn't be optional.
I've never heard of stations refusing a network show on the grounds that it promotes a service that threatens those stations' economic viability. Could NBCUniversal have made it optional to its non-O&O affiliates for that very reason? Corporate wants to sell an over-the-top streaming service that will compete with the interests of the local television stations by promoting it in a special. Why should ANY NBC affiliate want to put that on its airwaves? If NBC wants to send Peacock advertising down the line to the network during its entertainment, news and sports programming, that's a different story; the stations must grudgingly go along with it or have nothing to show.
In the analog era I would have been able to receive WRAL. I was about to list WIS too but I see they're not doing it.
You spoke too soon about WRAL. They are airing an education special. Just saw the alert on my phone. Capitol Broadcasting owns Highschoolot and the NCHSAA commissioner is also discussing sports.
