CBS Boston's Sunday-morning storm update runs far past routine

The WBZ-TV report on southern New England drew plenty of views but barely a dozen comments in its first day.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 96,994 views a day, 16 times a normal first day on this channel (6,183).

What does a weekend storm do to a Boston station's channel? "Nor'easter impacting southern New England Sunday morning" went up on Sunday and spent its first day moving at nearly sixteen times the pace a new CBS Boston upload usually manages.

That usual pace is modest, around six thousand views on day one before the next segment takes over. This one kept going. The comment section stayed almost empty all the same, so people were watching the forecast rather than talking about it.

CBS Boston is the online home of WBZ-TV, the city's CBS station, and a storm aimed at its own region is squarely its territory. It is also a channel that was already busy for local news: its everyday pace sits level with KTVU FOX 2 San Francisco and ahead of WSB-TV among stations of a similar size.
