Washington (CNN)The Hillary Clinton campaign requested Thursday that The Weather Channel delay airing its campaign ads until Hurricane Matthew passes.

"Earlier in the week we made changes to our TV ad reservations across hundreds of stations in several battleground states including Florida," Jesse Ferguson, a Clinton spokesman, said. "Less than 1% of those changes included The Weather Channel. We have requested that stations in Florida delay any of those ads on the Weather Channel until after the storm passes."

She’s working on the new ad right now:

Women are just as powerful as men and Hillary is a women. If you liked the power Matthew showed in Florida you’ll love what Hillary can do to the USA.

Slightly off topic . . . anybody have any thoughts on why she is running ANY ads in Fla? My understanding is that absentee ballot requests are running well for us and poorly for her. So poorly that she has likely lost the state already. I have heard rumors about her possibly giving up in Fla.

So why run ads at all? Just to appear as though she hasn’t given up on an important state?

Back on topic . . . talk about poor taste to run ads while people’s lives in such danger. Sheeesh,

Because suddenly, TWC is full of reality shows.

Not much 24/7 weather anymore, except for stuff like hurricanes and blizzards.

I know why: it will make her look ridiculously crass in light of a potential disaster from just north of Palm Beach, FL all the way to North Carolina's Outer Banks! And that's if Matthew doesn't make landfall again further up the US East Coast like Sandy in 2012 or the 1938 New England hurricane.

I doubt there will be any ads on The Weather Channel tonight. They’ll be going balls to the wall all night long and there wont be any commercials. Local on the 8s will be the only breaks they actually take.

Because she’s afraid she’ll have to get out of her hospital bed and go to all those states afterwards.

” Put some dope in a rain coat, toss him outside, and ask him if it is raining hard.”

As the dope gets blown away, the in-studio host asks, “How’s the wind out there, Bert?”

That just kills me!

Never thought I would need a generator in the USA.
