With the new video forecasts on its mobile Web presence, the company said it would begin rolling out novel advertising opportunities in the second quarter. There will be 15-second post-roll video ads, along with five-second billboards in the pre-roll spot and a banner ad. An advertiser can own a particular section, the network said.
The channel said its mobile locale has some 6.3 million unique users a month.
Also up for sale in the upfront is the opportunity to launch banner ads in a new, more prominent position on local forecast pages on Weather.com.
Paul Iaffaldano, executive vice president/general manager of TWC Media Solutions, said: "The debut of ad supported mobile Web video further enhances our reputation for matching the content interests of our users with the targeting needs of our advertisers."
