What Video Content Is Available on WOODTV.com?

WOODTV.com hosts video tied to its Grand Rapids and West Michigan coverage, and the site organizes it so you can scan the newest clips first. Based on the site's own listings, video falls into a few clear categories: Storm Team 8 forecasts, local event coverage such as ArtPrize, and spot-news reports on shootings, crashes, and investigations. Each clip carries a relative timestamp ("6 hours ago," "2 days ago"), and there is a "More Videos" link plus a "View All" option to browse beyond the initial set.

The main video categories you'll see

Storm Team 8 weather forecasts

Weather video is one of the most frequently updated types on the page. Examples visible in the listings include:

• "10.04.26 Storm Team 8 Sunday Weekend Daybreak" — posted 6 hours before the snapshot
• "Storm Team 8 Forecast, 11 p.m., 100326" — 12 hours before
• "Storm Team 8 Forecast, 6 p.m., 100326" — 17 hours before

The pattern shows forecast videos are published around typical broadcast times (morning daybreak, evening, and late-night), so checking the Latest Video list is a reasonable way to find the most recent forecast for the day.

ArtPrize and local event coverage

ArtPrize, the Grand Rapids art competition, generates a cluster of video stories. In the listings you can find:

• "ArtPrize grand finale, $400k-worth of prizes given ..." — 12 hours before
• "ArtPrize 2026 comes to a close in a grand finale" — 12 hours before
• "'Room for Lost Paradise' announced as ArtPrize 2026 ..." — 14 hours before
• "'Sketchdiet' by Kristin Pennock announced as ArtPrize ..." — 14 hours before
• "Yearlong drawn diary 'Sketchdiet' wins ArtPrize 2026" — 12 hours before
• "Artists say goodbye to their Artprize entries" — 2 days before
• "GR celebrates end of ArtPrize with downtown festivities" — 17 hours before

This shows event video isn't limited to a single recap — it includes award announcements, winner profiles, and closing festivities.

Spot news: crime, crashes, and investigations

Hard-news video appears alongside the event and weather clips. Examples from the listings:

• "21-year-old woman dead, 18-year-old arrested following ..." — 17 hours before
• "OCSO: 1 man killed after a crash in Tallmadge Township" — 4 hours before (Ottawa County)
• "Suspicious packages, FBI drug bust in Grand Haven" — 2 days before (Ottawa County)

These are tied to specific places (Ottawa County, Kalamazoo County, Calhoun County), which is useful if you're scanning for video about a particular West Michigan community.

Feature and human-interest video

The site also carries lighter segments, such as:

• "Grand Rapids Couple performs their 54th polka set at GR Pulaski ..." — 13 hours before
• "Relationship runs deep for rival W MI coaches" — 2 days before (Football Frenzy)
• "RC Caylan fashion show breaks world record" — 13 hours before
• "Bryan Cranston announces Delta Sky Club Award" — 12 hours before

How the video is presented

What to expect when you use it

The video on WOODTV.com is local-first: it mirrors the station's Grand Rapids and West Michigan coverage rather than national or international video. If you want a current forecast, the Storm Team 8 clips are the most frequently refreshed. If you're following a specific story — an ArtPrize result or a county-level incident — the category tags and timestamps let you confirm whether a clip is recent or a couple of days old.

One practical note: the listings show relative times, not exact publish times, so "6 hours ago" is only accurate as of when you load the page. For anything time-sensitive, reload the Latest Video list rather than relying on a cached view.
