Tropical Storm Fred is approaching the Florida Panhandle on Monday, while at the same time, Grace is moving across parts of the Caribbean that have been devastated by a major earthquake over the weekend. Both storms are expected to affect parts of the Gulf Coast regions of the United States over the course of this week.

That means it’s important to be able to follow coverage even if you don’t have cable. Fortunately, there are Live TV Streaming Services that offer Free Trials, and Free Streaming Options so you can get the latest information available on Tropical Storm Fred and Tropical Storm Grace.

The good news is that all of these services work on your TV, as well as your phone — so if you lose internet connection, but still have cell service — you can still follow the storm coverage.

1. Stream The Weather Channel Live

If you want to stream the The Weather Channel, the only major Live TV Streaming Service that offers the network is Fubo which offers a 7-Day Free Trial.

AT&T TV offers The Weather Channel as part of its Choice, Ultimate, and Premier plans, but does not offer a free trial.

Alternatively, FrndlyTV also offers the channel for $5.99 a month.

Unfortunately, services like Hulu Live TV, Sling TV, and YouTube TV don’t offer The Weather Channel. However, most of them will stream your local channels which will likely be televising updates on Tropical Storm Elsa as it moves up the coast.

2. Watch Local News Coverage Live with NewsOn

As Tropical Storm Fred approaches the Florida Coast and Tropical Storm Elsa moves toward the Gulf of Mexico, NewsON will offer live local news coverage from their partners in the affected areas, including WALA/WPMI/WEAR in Pensacola/Mobile, WLOX in Biloxi, WWL/WDSU/WVUE New Orleans, and other stations as the storms continue to move through the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico over the course of the week.

You can watch it via their website, their TV apps on Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, or on your mobile device on iOS and Android.

3. Watch Local News Updates with Haystack News and VUIt

Free streaming service, Haystack News will continue to provide video updates from their local news partners from around the affected areas. You can view their ongoing coverage on their website at Haystack.TV, or by downloading their app, available on Android TV, Android TV, Chromecast, Fire TV, Apple TV, Roku, iOS, Android, Samsung, LG, Toshiba, Vizio, and Hisense TV.

Free streaming service VUIt has local feeds from a number of stations in the target zone of Tropical Storm Fred and Tropical Storm Grace, and will provide wall-to-wall coverage as the storms nears landfall. The VUIt streaming app is available for Android, iOS, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and Chromecast.
