RIP 2-minute flavors  :cry:

I wonder why TWC decided to eliminate those flavors.

Yeah. Just the 1-minute local and the 90-second locals.

But why? I thought the 2 minute locals weren't going anywhere in the morning. I don't see a need to shorten the LFs with the new programming change unless they're that desperate for extra ads

Weather Center Live is not using the LDL Squeeze back LOT8s on the 5pm show.
Under the old WCL schedule the LDL Squeeze back was used at :8 and :38 minuets after the hour.

I got a reply from Melissa but since I have no access to TWC I can't confirm: 2 minute locals still on mornings from 6 am to 11 am. After 2 pm, they are shortened to 1 minute. Not sure if the :28/:58 locals during primetime and overnight count either I assume it's not

I saw/heard a very interesting phrase on the text based forecast this morning..."Any remaining showers and thunderstorms will diminish as the day progresses".

I heard that phrase once several years ago.

Goodbye, 2 minute LF flavors  :cry: :cry3:

I sure hope TWC will bring them back someday.
