I'm sure the projector wall is energy efficient at least to some extent. The studio was built using eco-friendly products.

The LOT8's sponsor bumper at 9:08 AM ET used the old 2003-05 WC music instead of the newer music that replaced it a few months ago.
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

All the cast & crew of WUWA just came onscreen  :wacko:  I knew they would make a big deal out of their 1 year anniversary, so that's why I watched  :P  They even had the Cake Boss make a cake!  :pinch:

Now that I think about it, it probably is.

Looks a lot like the pre-2006 basemaps. I like it.

That's not bad for a topographical background.  I was wondering when those would reemerge again on the radar segments.

On WUWA, they went to Jen Carfagno's desk in the old studio, and displayed on her screen was Titan with the old basemaps.

Edit: Carl was showing a 12-hour west coast radar/satellite loop on Titan, and towards the end of the loop, you could see the basemap change from the old one to the new one.

I definately like the new topo graphs  :yes:

Unrelated, I am not really a fan of the new weather.com'; luckily I am not a frequent user.

Wow I wasn't expecting this... today I heard an ad on a local radio station about the new weather.com. I think this was the first time I heard a TWC ad on the radio. :o

I've heard a couple from time to time over the years, even a long time ago.
