Atlanta-based The Weather Channel, which started showing documentaries to its basic bread-and-butter weather reports over the years, is now adding feature films for the first time.

They plan on buying older films that have weather or weather events as a part of the movie in some way.  The first one shown will be "The Perfect Storm" with George Clooney.

The network says if it works they will add more films to it's lineup.  Ok,  let's hear your weather related movies...  I'll start with "Twister" and "Groundhog Day", maybe someday "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs"  Got any more?
