The Weather Channel plans to show movies for the first time in its 27-year history, starting with perhaps the obvious choice: "The Perfect Storm."
The 2000 George Clooney-Mark Wahlberg film, about a horrific storm off the New England coast, will air Oct. 30, the 18th anniversary of the actual storm.
"Perfect Storm" begins a four-week period in which The Weather Channel will try some Friday night movies.
