"Our weather is always changing, so the timing is perfect to team up with WeatherNation to provide our viewers the most in-depth weather coverage on channel 4.3," said Dan Pope, chief meteorologist for ABC4 Utah. "Many people already watch our PINPOINT WEATHER Interactive radar on 4.3, and now we are producing even more local weather information and updates every 10 minutes, plus regional and national updates from WeatherNation."

"WeatherNation brings world-class technology and additional professional talent that will provide more of the quality weather coverage viewers have come to expect from Salt Lake City's ABC4 Utah PINPOINT WEATHER," said Michael Norton, president of WeatherNation.
