I was just getting ready for bed and put it on WBZ1030 AM, Boston. They have a talk show host doing call in’s and he’s getting tons of calls from folks in North Carolina, Maryland, New Jersey, etc. They are calling in saying they are without power so they put on the radio to see if they can get updates and most can only get WBZ and no local coverage so they are asking the host to give them updates and he is. So weird though. Does anyone know why they couldn’t get local coverage? I’m guessing it’s because the local stations are off the air and without power obviously, but it’s something I never thought of before. Most people in storms without electricity turn to the radio for info, but what good does it do if they local stations are down as well.
Very weird
