[edit] Unique features
News 13 has several features that make it unique in the area.
- At the top and bottom of each hour, the station gives a minute-long summary of recent news in the "Central Florida Minute".
- There is a weather report every ten minutes called "Weather on the 1's." During the Atlantic Hurricane Season, two of these reports each hour are dedicated to tropical activity.
- On the weekends, it airs a program called "For the Record," in which two personalities from the station speak with area leaders and other influential people about important regional topics.
- Also on the weekends, a segment called "Weather Pets" features the meteorologist speaking with local pet adoption representatives. Usually the representative will have an actual dog or cat that is up for adoption in the studio.
