Warm weather across the UK this weekend may bring signal disruptions for Freeview users due to a high-pressure system. The BBC explains that high pressure can weaken signal reception and lead to interference from distant transmitters. Freeview advises viewers not to retune their TVs during this period of disruption, expected to last until Monday.
To mitigate the impact, viewers with internet-connected smart TVs can switch to Freeview Play for online viewing. Additionally, Freeview mobile app and Freely, a broadband-based streaming platform, offer alternative ways to access TV channels unaffected by weather conditions. Freely provides over 50 live and on-demand channels with features like live TV pausing and personalized recommendations.
