Arab Weather - In the midst of droughts, forest fires, floods and hurricanes that swept the world this year, Fox, the media empire, decided to launch a new weather channel to join its group of channels.

 

The launch of Fox Weather came as the world's weather became more and more severe, with people thirsting for more than an app that told them the temperature and whether they should carry an umbrella.

 

Fox's push into weather comes at a time when experts in the field say that the audience for weather news is expected to increase in the coming years as the impact of climate and weather-related events on the economy, politics and mental and physical health of the people of the world is increasing, and now people are beginning to understand What does climate change and global warming mean.

 

Fox has employed more than 100 employees, including dozens of meteorologists, for its national weather team and invested $10 million in the project, pouring a massive dose of capital into weather news by one of the world's largest media companies.

 

The launch of a new weather channel is evidence of the increasing importance of weather and climate information for people around the world, but it must accept the fierce competition with the weather giants who fought in this field for decades.
