When the weather becomes a hot topic on Twitter, the Weather Channel will try to seize the moment with some custom content thanks to a new deal with Twitter. The idea is to draw third-party advertisers to sponsor the content. Under the ESPN deal, for instance, Ford inserted a pitch for its Fusion before replays of college football instant replays tweeted by ESPN. Here, a hurricane, for instance, might be a sponsorship opportunity for insurers like State Farm, which tried its hand at various forms of digital advertising during Hurricane Sandy last year. Other current TWC advertisers include Scott's, Jeep and L.L. Bean. **Could be something for Pennington. Sponsor good spring weather.**
