Bill Pohovey, news director at BH Media-owned ABC affiliate WPLG says the station has been in extended coverage since Sunday, and began live, around-the-clock coverage Thursday at 4 a.m.

The station had signed on Max Mayfield, former Director of the National Hurricane Center, earlier this year for hurricane season coverage. Pohovey says it’s unclear how long coverage will last.

Here’s a list of Florida stations streaming coverage:

Miami/Ft. Lauderdale:

WPLG (ABC 10)

WFOR (CBS 4)

WTVJ (NBC 6)

WSVN (FOX 7)

WKMG (CBS 6)

WESH (NBC 2)

Thanks for the info. Neither WWBA or WFLA makes it here to northern Pasco County at night, but since I have a portable HD radio I can listen to WFLA on 97.9 HD-2.
 
Well CBSN at this time has released a feed from WINK News of Fort Myers/Naples area. Currently they have been mainly sticking to the Wall to Wall Coverage from that station. My take here is that there no national staff available at that point due to the curfews that emergency services has just announced for Florida.
 
WTSP is reporting that Tampa is next on the list and also 94.9 FM, 98.5fm in the Tampa area and 1220am are all simulcasting WTSP News.
