Snow Is Clobbering Buffalo. Local Radio Is There.

To read this piece, you might think WBEN-AM is the only radio station in Buffalo covering the storm. But I'm sure most stations, even those playing music, are doing their best to stay on top of an unfolding disaster. Still, this is the kind of event that WBEN - and radio itself - is known for.

WBEN AM 930 announced they will be "live and local" tomorrow (Saturday Nov. 19) at least from 06:00 - 15:00. Unfortunately they appear to geo-block the stream to Canada. A VPN is needed to listen.

None of Audacy's radio stations can be streamed outside the U.S. without a VPN.

I wish iHeartMedia had the Buffalo stations like Kiss 98.5, Star 102.5, and WBEN AM 930.

Interesting that CBC,CTV and Global all had reporters in Buffalo/Niagara reporting on the mega storm.

Except CHCH Hamilton the reporter was only in Fort Erie.

If Toronto had a massive storm like that, Buffalo Media wouldnt even be aware of it or care.
