Alexandra mentioned they dispatched 7 teams to the east coast... So far, I can guess: Jim, Mike Bettes, Mike Seidel, Steph, Jeff Morrow, Julie Martin... but who else would they send out? I'm predicting they may send out Chris Warren and Scott Williams too.

Well, you got six. :P My guess for the 7th would either be Al or possibly Paul...he's reported in the field recently. :yes:

My guess is also Paul, Chris, and Scott.  :yes: All three were doing field reporting this past winter so it would make sense.

Al Roker?  I wouldn't think they would mention him as part of their "team" but who knows.

Also: anyone else seen the new WUWA/YWT combo promos?  Less emphasis on Steph being on Al, it seems.
Yes, I noticed this promo today.  I would have thought maybe they would put more emphasis on Stephanie being with Al than being with Mike.  Shoot, half the time it's WUWA-Wake Up With Abrams and have Bettes in the studio.  Their morning line-up makes no sense to me :P.  Lack of consistency.

This is odd...TWC has reverted back to their old tropical graphics. :blink: Could this be because Earl is closer to the US. :dunno:

OLD


NEW

They seem to be changing them everyday, which is confusing. :wacko: Maybe it depends on who is working in the control room, and some might have not been aware that the graphics had changed... or maybe it's just a preference, not sure.

As found on weather.com, the following meteorologists are doing field-reports for Hurricane Earl:
N.C. Outer Banks: Jim Cantore, Stephanie Abrams, and Jeff Morrow
Long Island, NY: Chris Warren and Mike Siedel
Cape Cod, MA: Paul Goodloe and Eric Fisher <— Your wish has been granted, Ana. :P

Confusing indeed. Now I can't tell which ones they're using frequently. I like the new ones better imo.

I am sure Jim Cantore will be doing the evening reports.  He was reporting last night from the outer banks of North Carolina.

Carl Parker is on WC with Alexandra tonight. Chris and Jim are field-reporting and obviously can't be in the studio. :yes:
