Those in Windsor will be interested to know the inevitable is coming sooner than later. A lot sooner.
With more than a month to go to the big day, WNIC-FM has confirmed it will be following the All Yule rule beginning Nov. 6th - for some reason, on a Thursday.
The station is planning a huge promotional gathering to let listeners know what's coming.
Can CHFI be far behind?

CHFI tends to hold onto a tradition of going all Christmas on the day of Toronto's Santa Claus Parade.
I doubt they will start any sooner.
If this stays true, CHFI will not go all Christmas until Sunday November 23, 2025.

It’s always a weekday in prime-time for maximum impact. I’m going with 8am on the 21st

In the September book, WNIC is 2nd with a 7.9 behind WXYT at 8.4. I suspect NIC will blow by The Ticket in November and December and return to 2nd place in January.

The only "Pro" on that list I consider positive is the Charlie Brown Christmas Soundtrack LP by Vince Guaraldi.

Closer to home, Townsquare's WTSS 96.1 in Buffalo officially flipped to all Christmas on Saturday. Seems a bit early to me (they haven't even celebrated Thanksgiving in the U.S. yet) but they claim on their website they're the only station going all Xmas in Western New York. Perhaps they mean they're the only ones so far.
