Try 43.6 degrees Farenheit in a suburb of Tampa at 9:57 PM at night in October. <_<

We're supposed to break record lows tonight. :brr:
Try 37 degrees Fahrenheit, with a wind chill of 33 in Pensacola at 6:26 AM in the morning in October, with a Freeze Warning to boot. :brr: :P

I need to start using the words "to boot" in my stories

It looks like Sunrise Weather is off to a bumpy start... started with no audio whatsoever -- no intro music, no audio from anything, then it cut to the video wall, where it sat on Current Weather for about a minute, the next slide came up then it cut to the emergency satellite feed.. it is now 4:34am... The music I'm hearing on the satellite LF feed sounds like what I'd hear on Weatherscan...

Yeah, that was Trammell Starks, which is always used for the emergency feed.

In fact, for the entirety of Sunrise Weather, they couldn't get audio and video from the control room at the same time, so pretty much the whole show was dominated by the emergency feed and by some attempts to show the widescreen maps meant for the video wall using frames.

WWC was using the EE studio colors today like they were during the very first WWC in the HD studio. I wonder what was up with that...

Whoa. On my programming guide, it says that Sunrise Weather is on from 4:30am to 6am, and that Weekend Outlook is on from 6am-7am....  :blink: is this a sign that Weekend Outlook is beginning to be phased out? gonna check to see if Sunrise Weather is actually on at 5am...

5am EDIT: it looks like it was a glitch or something... such false hope :(
