That was the 2nd fastest Weekly Planner I've ever seen at 45 seconds... way to speed talk, Steph! :blink:

The fastest one was bullshitted with Steph talking dandruff and just whizzing past the maps in 20 seconds on June 22.

At least they are doing Weekly Planner. Wake Up With Al might not have weekly planners.

Also, I've never seen the telestrator used in this position before!

That's because you're always sleeping when they've used it in that position this week (Dr. Forbes on PME and the PME teaser at the end of DP).

They have also used it for Dr. Forbes on the old Weekend Weather Center and even once on EEWC when they did a live segment with Dr. Forbes one time.

According to Todd at the end of DP, he's been in New York the past few weeks.

Summer 06 was the best summer ever for so many reasons. TWC was a lot better back then

I thought summer 04 was the best summer ever on TWC. :P

It seemed like there was a severe weather breakout everyday around the US.

And TWC hit a stretch of great playlists from July04-June05.

It wasn't my favorite summer. Alberto and Ernesto coverage ruined it for me.

I loved summer 2008. It was exciting to see TWC step up to HD.

I liked Summer 2006 because it was the last summer when there really was good structure in TWC's schedule. In 2007, the started to get erratic in how well structured teasers were from day-to-day. I also liked Summer 2008, as it was cool to watch TWC go HD, but not cool to watch their programming suffer, as it started to at the end of the summer and has been in a downward spiral ever since.

For me, I'd say, Summer 2004

Summer 2004: 9.5/10. Good, possibly one of the best summer
Summer 2005: 8.5/10. OK, but not bad. I like all of the summer 05 playlist.
Summer 2006: 8.5/10. Good, but the Storm alert coverage ruined the summer since hurricane coverage isn't the same anymore since this summer. My favorite playlist was July 2006.
Summer 2007: 9/10. A bit better, but hurricane coverages. The music playlist were OK.
Summer 2008: 9.5/10. Tie with 2004, the best summer ever along with 04. However, the hurricane coverages during Aug-Sept kills. 1. They shows that awful blue bar (sometimes red during storm alert). It's the one that shows path, info of the hurricane. This is why I don't do hurricane related on TWC.
Summer 2009: 1/10. Gargabe summer as well as the current year. That awful blue bar is still there as well as the suckish LDA bar. The BBOD and WUWA ruined it. TWC is not the same anymore.

Alejandro, it seems that TWC's logo might just be using FF Meta.

I thought this was great when I saw it, and I had to share. I love how towards the end someone walks directly in front of the camera with a bottle of coke in his hand!  :rofl2:
