WPTV investigated door-to-door solar pitches in Florida on August 4, 2026, revealing homeowners reported decades of debt, malfunctioning systems, and persistent power bills, with the investigation finding some salespeople lacked required licenses and some contracts missed key consumer disclosures. Previously, on July 7, WPTV NewsChannel 5 confirmed it sold its longtime downtown West Palm Beach property at 1100 Banyan Blvd. and will relocate to Palm Beach Gardens, becoming a neighbor to competitor WPBF-Channel 25. In June, Scripps Sports and WPTV-TV aired an all-new "Panthers 360: NHL Draft Special" on June 24 at 7 p.m. ET, which also broadcast on WSFL-TV in the Miami-Dade and Broward regions. Earlier, on May 19, the WPTV First Alert Weather Team joined the City of Boca Raton for its “Storm Ready” Hurricane Preparedness Tour on May 26, sharing information to help the community prepare for the 2026 Hurricane Season. This followed WPTV and South Florida's 9 announcing a broadcast partnership with the Palm Beach Royals, South Florida’s newest Major League Pickleball team, in March, making Royals matches available in living rooms beginning in May.
