Ok so it's been a while since I posted, a little busy, sorry about that :P
Did anyone else get the email from TWC about beta-testing the new weather.com they're supposedly working on? If there's already a thread on it, could someone point me in the right direction? lol sorry

no? I don't think anyone has...  :unsure: and there is no thread about it that I know of.

btw great  to see ya Max :)

It seems that the evening long-form block is officially back for at least the next two weeks, according to Zap2it.com and TWC commercials. The programming will be on at 9pm, 12am, and 3am eastern.

^now that's a win. :P

Yeah, that's more like it! Long form at 9 PM, 12 PM, etc. That's better! More weather to see on TWC.

I DON'T, lol :P
But seriously, it's annoying if there is a big crawl, and I want to trim it with an LF.

I figured a new weather.com had to be in the works. It's outdated and ugly. Hopefully NBC spices it up!

Edit: It appears, through a google search, the link for the beta site is this: i.imwx.com/common/beta/entry.html?next=
but it won't load for me

It's not working for me either.  I did see some coding in the page source from that link, so they're probably not done with the site yet.
