History
KIMT-DT3 previously featured a rotating Storm Team 3 weather maps such as Current Temperatures and Dew Points, Weather Alerts, the 7 Day Forecast, Local, Regional, and National Radar, the local Pollen Count, and a Growing Degree Days map, with audio from the National Weather Service's NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards. Known on-air as KIMT Storm Team 3, this was available over-the-air, with the exception of nearby cities Clear Lake and Ventura's local cable company, CLTel, which broadcasts on channel 361.
