Local forecast blooper just now.  At the 10:28 (Central time) local forecast, there were a bunch of noises to start out the local forecast.  They probably lasted about 50 seconds, then the local forecast went totally devoid of sound.  The sounds they featured sounded like a clown at a party.  There were a bunch of honking noises.  Very weird; at first I actually thought it was a song, but I quickly realized that no song would feature just random noises.

Ya know, I was just wondering the other day if they still had the old era's packages ready to be cued even after the HD transition, and what do you know? At the end of Weekend Outlook this morning, they played the ending portion of last era's WO bumper music. Wow, never thought I'd hear that on the air again!

Ever since June 2nd, the IntelliStar has had only one LDL. The special long-form LDL with all the extra info was made into the standard LDL for all programming.

When Kelly was talking, the music on the Weekly Planner was loud that you couldn't hear her. Sounds like they forgot to turn the volume down for the opener. Kelly was laughing at that.

Yes, but during weekends and middays the traffic crawl only displays incidents and not trip times (unless if the route is slow). Also I don't think the airports display all day.

I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

I can't believe they would seriously use OverDrive for their #1 rated program Weekend View.

Also, they used the A&B set colors for the first segment of FO today before finally fixing it for the second segment. That was a great idea there! :P

At the beginning of Weather Center, Betty said "PM Edition begins right now." Then the WC opener played then she said "welcome to Weather Center."
