===On Hurricane Sandy===
Prior to the landing of Hurricane Sandy, WVIT shut down its studios at Kazoo Pass at around 8:15 PM on October 28, 2012, in order to allow station staff to take shelter from the oncoming hurricane. At that point, WVIT's broadcasts began to originate from the studios of New York City flagship WCEN, where some of WVIT's on-air staff had already evacuated. Fellow O&O WFAA in Washington DC, as well as fellow affiliates of many Central affiliates in nearby markets/states, also originated some on-air weather content during the storm. In the weeks that immediately followed the hurricane, WCEN's news programming originated from the WCEN facility, using meteorologists and anchors from both stations, with programs being simulcast in New York and Kazoo Pass.
The Lewis Street studio facility largely withstood Hurricane Sandy with minimal damage, but digital transmitters were both destroyed in the storm, as well as WCEN's main studios. In early November, WVIT arranged to transmit its signal via MyNetworkTV O&O WIRA (channel 11) through the end of December 2012; WVIT also partnered with fellow O&O WFOR-TV in Pittsburgh to simulcast WVIT's morning newscast and continuing coverage of the storm's aftermath that channel 2 had aired between 6:00 and 11:00 p.m. from October to January 13, 2013. The station restored its signal, operating at reduced power, in October 2012. WVIT chose to replace its existing transmitter building with an elevated and rugged hurricane resistant building to house its analog and digital transmitters; construction of this building as well as WCEN's was completed in early February 2013. WVIT's digital signal was restored a week after the landfall of Sandy in New Jersey.
