Here we go.

I noticed this when I saw it live, but why did they use Google Earth for the satellite loop there?

I think they used it to put the name labels on there; plus it looks kinda neat, I suppose.

They're using the morning horizontal stripes on the walls again for EE. What happened to the normal dark blue ones? :(

(I seriously hope they're not breaking structure already after Gustav the same way YWT suddenly lost its production structure after Dean last year.)

What do you mean by "production structure"? :unsure:

I wouldn't understand why TWC would let hurricane coverage mess normal things up.

Well, a few lighting changes are what I'm referring to here, but YWT suffered greatly after Dean last year when the whole show pretty much lost its structure until the HD relaunch. During that time period, the show stopped using pretty much all of its openers, stopped doing the region-by-region look at :00 and :30, and dropped the Travel segment at :10 in favor of fluff. (Travel Destinations)

Basically what happened is that the structure was temporarily taken away for Dean coverage, but they decided to never restore structure after Dean went away.

What kind of Storm Alert theme music is this? :wacko:

They used that music on and off throughout Storm Alert even though it's not the main Storm Alert theme. I don't really know anything else about it.

I just saw a Forecast Earth segment with Dr. Lyons in the old studio, and the Day Planner/Weather Center backdrop is still up. Looks like they haven't touched the backdrops since the last day of SD broadcasting.

Sharon's wearing green tonight, isn't she? That's something you wouldn't see in the key wall days...

Woah, why am I seeing Adam Berg on EEWC right now??  :blink:

Edit: I guess they're pulling live coverage all night and didn't want to overwork Rich and Sharon?

Edit 2: Looks like Adam was just in for the 1 AM ET segment to give an update. Back to pre-recorded "yeah let's do that" at 1:10.
