The severe weather channel is now live on 361.2, using 103cb, TPN 1, VPID 1040 which used to be YESHD prior to it moving to D14.
Going through the feeds Orlando, Tampa and Fort Myers are in non-stop storm coverage mode, so it should start showing content in the next hour or so. Gainesville's only local news station is currently showing ABC's World News Tonight without any local on screen weather info. Tallahassee's stations also went to their network newscasts, but have local weather info overlayed.
EDIT: Gainesville's ABC went to Entertainment Tonight at 7pm, still no local weather overlays, Tallahassee's CBS resumed their coverage, the rest of their stations went to regular programming. Even though the latest advisory has the eye of the storm heading for the border between both of those DMAs.

Just no resources in those smaller DMAs I'm guessing? I noticed the same on the track, the line takes the eye right through Taylor County in the Tallahassee DMA if it continues on the current track. It looks like it's going to hit the Tampa DMA on the approach, Tallahassee, Gainesville on landfall, then progress through Jacksonville, Savannah, Charleston, Myrtle Beach, Wilmington, and possibly off the coast of Greenville/New Bern NC.
One thing I'm seeing tonight that I haven't really seen much on the Severe Weather Channel before is that they seem to be relying on lots of SD locals instead of HD ones in some cases.

As previously mentioned the Severe Weather Channels, US Open and more of the Sunday Ticket channels went live.
9552 will be the 4 game Mix, 9553 will be the 8 game mix, 9554-9567 will be SD and HD game channels, however 9560's SD feed was accidently left on channel 711. (Basically the old residential entries for 705-718 were readded and moved to channels 9554-9567, and the mix channels on 701/702 were readded and moved to channels 9552/9553) The Sunday Ticket Auth channel is now repurposing CINE 175.
Cleanup of more of the lingering residential Sunday Ticket test records that weren't removed in the purge from a few weeks ago, including the Fantasy Zone.
9752 OFFER (Ultimate Package Offer) is now live, 9753 *FOMO (It's Sports Time!) is in test mode
Willow Cricket HD potentially in test on channel 9540, however it's still pointing to the Ku Offline slate
Tweaks to the NOTES structure for all the OTA channels with fake TMSIDs to simplify their descriptions.
i.e. "Independent WPSGDT2 (WPSG-DT2) from Philadelphia, PA." -> "Independent WPSG-DT2 from Philadelphia, PA."
(For OTA channels they only list the major network affiliations, while the diginets all get labeled as "Independent")

Also for those wondering, no sign of any INFO/ALERT channels regarding the missing Charleston/Louisville/Parkersburg 119/TPN 32 MPEG-2 locals.
We were expected to see channels 9526 and 9527 relabeled to ESPN+ Business. That has not happened without explanation. Even the guys at Joe Hand Promotions told me in person at an unrelated event it was gonna happen. What’s now missing on the guide for this weekend under that package is UFC Fight Night in Paris 12:30pm ET and a couple extra college football games on ESPN+ including Eastern Kentucky vs. Cincinnati.
711 has since been removed however 9650 is labeled as “NFL Sunday Ticket 9560” (SD)

In addition to the previously mentioned stuff over the past week like the removal of the Severe Weather Channels (hopefully Lee will bend out to sea next week so they won't be needed)
Removal of the US Open prep channels
New targetted channels 9755 GIFT ($200 Sunday Ticket gift card) replaced 9754 (Gemini Offer), 9756 GIFT (Red Zone on us) replaced 9752 (Ultimate Package Offer), and 9753 FOMO is now live, although it will eventually be replaced by 9757 *OFFER (Showtime for $1.99)
KCEB/54 (Novelisima) in test for Tyler-Longview, removal of the ex-Azteca affiliate WANA-LD in the Fort Myers DMA
The rest of the Sunday Ticket channels have been added, Puerto Rico has Red Zone on channel 620
CW/MNT/Ind changes in 9 DMAs, along with several OTA subchannels in Montana. Although they didn't even bother updating the records of the disputed Nexstar stations in San Francisco, Philly, Tampa and OKC. Seattle also got screwed over because they had to resort to a last minute deal for Sinclair's KOMO-D2 instead of Tegna's KONG.
KUPX Utah is now independent and will be Salt Lake City's home of the Golden Knights

Do you know what airs on there now? The Wikipedia page doesn't mention a network and RabbitEars still has Azteca for the network. I'm assuming it's just silent, and was just showing "No need to call us" from the Azteca shutdown at the end of last year until now.
The Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands Sunday Ticket channels were initially only for commercial accounts in those regions, but as of today they will be available for those residential customers
Could be partial response to the NFL calling out DTV over the Travis Kelce ad despite the Gemini boxes can connect to YouTube TV
Here’s that ad, if any of you haven’t already seen it:
