It's interesting the different levels of outages with DirecTV. We lost signal multiple times this morning with each outage being at least 10-20 minutes.

It never occurred to me that standard def channels would get better results than high def, but I tried it this morning when I lost signal for a high def channel and sure enough, when tuning to a standard def channel it was still getting a signal. However, unless there is some secret that I am not aware of, the local channels that broadcast weather information are only available in high def.
