At 3:06 PM ET on Weather Center, before going to break, they used the Day Planner one-line lower third.

At 2:00 AM ET after the local forecast, they played two commercials, then cut to EEWC already in progress. Not sure if it also happened at 12:00 AM ET (I was out watching NASCAR :P).

I fell asleep during NASCAR and just woke up. :(

Did they just start this current LF without an opener?

Now there's commercials after the LF. >_>

Edit, 1:42 AM CT: Since then, there have been numerous TWC commercials where they don't belong and no use of LF openers. Master is right well ****ed right now.

Edit, 1:48 CT: Still no LF openers.

Edit, 2:16 CT: The recorded national segment just went off the air at 2:16! Like I said, really ****ed up.

For about a minute and continuing, there's no audio when the segment started at :40 then a black screen resulted for 5 seconds :huh:

At 12:52 AM ET, Adam showed a graphic for the Boston Marathon and the temperature wasn't updated on the graphic so it just displayed a dash where the temperature should've gone. Also the LIVE tag appeared during that graphic for some reason.

Yeah, that got really weird there. I wonder what was going on.

At 3:25 AM CT, they used the old pre-June 2007 lower third for Nick Walker. That was weird, I've never seen that happen with the current master control format.

Weird, they're using PM Edition's LIVE tag on Weather Center right now.

They just opened First Outlook with a 2005-2007 series lower third. They quickly cut it off within seconds, though.

They did it again today at 3:36.

They're still using the Day Planner/Weather Center backdrop at the start of PM Edition.

They started off Day Planner with the Your Weather Today backdrop. Now they've switched to the Day Planner backdrop, but the lights behind the backdrop are off, so the backdrop is very dark. It looks kinda cool, though. :P

EDIT: They've now fixed the backdrop lighting.

During the tease for YWT at 7, they had a First Outlook logo on-screen for a few seconds, then nothing.
