No topic for this yet...

Long-form blacked out at 2:38 PM ET and was replaced by the emergency feed until the 2:40 commercial break.

6/30 at 1:59am ET after the Local Forecast we got the backup feed instead of the live Weather Now segment before taped programming.

Dense Fog Advisory + Forecast Glitch - 10/13/12


According to this video (courtesy of MemphisTWC) the emergency feed was cued following an LF when a live weather update failed to appear. It happened at around 2AM ET this morning.


Note: Sorry for the double post.

Nice find! Can someone tell me the name of the song on the segment of the emergency feed?

The emergency feed appeared at 12:18PM PT during the squeezeback segment in place of the LWU camera feed (the squeezeback graphics were functioning as normal.)

I fixed the spelling error in the subject as I doubt anyone has ever had "sightnings." :thumbsup:

I heard "If I Could" by Phish play at :08 during the second half of the LF (the first half was silent) so I'm pretty sure the EF cued during this LF, but I did not see the feed.

The WCL Replay froze at 1:20AM ET so they went to the Emergency Feed until 1:24AM ET.

Were there new graphics on the EF, or are they still the same as before?

The squeezeback segment did not cue at 3:48PM PT, so the emergency feed was cued instead. Also, the EF now seems to have updated graphics  :o

Note: Sorry about the crappy quality as I took it with my phone.
