They started this segment using a really weird angle at the projector wall; it looked cool, though.

Then Sharon immediately followed with "That sounds like a plan!"

They must be settling in... :P

And then another "Alright, sounds like a plan" after that. :happy:

I'm so glad I get to watch EEWC again. :P

Bloopers left and right with maps and videos.  Tropical Update music played a few minutes ago with a black screen.  All bloopers now in HD!

To be fair though, I think they're doing better tonight than most other nights...

They just tried to show off the studio at the top of the hour, but the camera on the track above the desk just shook in place.

We just had our first clicker failure in the HD studio when Heather was doing the Weekly Planner. Funny thing is that just before that, I almost accidentally changed the channel on my recording, and I thought, "What if her clicker were to fail if I changed the channel?"

Freaky.

There doesn't seem to be much consistency today with respect to the music used in Your Weather Today.  I'm sure they haven't settled in yet and are trying to tweak things...

They're now using YWT lower thirds on Day Planner today for some reason.

Here's the first broadcast in Evening Edition HD: http://files.filefront.com/EE+6+2+08+600+PMwmv/;10469579;/fileinfo.html

Wow! Overcompensating much (talking about the music and intro)? :fear: Studio looks great, though. That part that Alex said about how our goal remains the same made me laugh. Are they trying something new? :P
