Word is that Sam Champion's new show on the Weather Channel will be more than just weather.

The show called AMHQ will hit the air in March 17th and will go head to head with the network morning shows airing from 7-10AM.

FTVLive hears that Champion's show will not only include weather, but will also have general news and sports.

Sources say the TWC has hired a "sports journalist" and a News Anchor for the show.
