Programming and Graphics / Bottom scroll - whatever happened
« on: February 08, 2015, 06:07:28 PM »
Maybe this was brought up before so I apologize but can the weather channel scroll warning and advisorys on the bottom like they use to? Color coded as well.  With all these winter storms there have been plenty of warnings but you never see anything on the bottom scrolling. Or when they would post NWS bulletins. Really a shame. I won't bring up the fact we all know with Verizon the HD and SD national and local feed driving me crazy. I should just stop complaining, the channel will never go back to what it was or listen to the real viewers.  I'm done with my rant again

Programming and Graphics / Pathetic TWC not showing weather tonight
« on: January 23, 2015, 08:58:05 PM »
A major winter Storm is fast approaching the northeast and TWC has decided showing reality crap is better then having the weather on.  For work and my occupation storms are part of the job and we need to know what's up. Granted we can read everything on NWS website and read discussions. But it would be nice to have a weather channel on a TV that actually shows weather and OCMs talking to us and explaining what's going on. I give up on this channel. I gave up long ago, but now that's it.  Oh I long for the days when I could turn on the TWC, especially with a major storm was approaching and I got the weather and a solid local forecast.  Put this station out of its misery already.

Everything Else TWC / TWC website criticism
« on: October 21, 2014, 08:45:40 PM »
Interesting article about the TWC website. I also noticed the same thing on air today with TWC hyping a nor easter that is not a nor easter per say. TWC actually did a little segment on this how TWC is calling a nor'easter but other meteorologists, stations and noaa are not calling it one.  It seems to me Twc is really starting to lose credibility and friends in the weather profession circles.  Seem to be on their own. Started w th naming winter storms.  False headlines.  TWC seems to think they know it all and and are rewriting weather.  It's a shame.  A great product ruined.
Here is the article http://m.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/wp/2014/10/21/now-more-than-ever-weather-com-is-out-of-control/

 On a side note is the studio new for weather center live? Not bad, now get new OCM and format.

Weatherscan Discussion / Trammell Starks
« on: October 07, 2014, 12:23:38 AM »
Sorry if I'm not posting in the right area or this has been posted before. I'm new so don't hate me. I only recently got Verizon and the weatherscan. I will say that I like it and it has some old flavor with the new.  It was great hearing Tramell Starks "The only one for me".  I like this better then local on the 8's. The one change I would love to see is get rid of the female voice and give me Allan Jackson.  I also wish it was HD channel and not SD but hey it's a little taste of the past. Now if I could only tune in at night or Midnights to TWC when nothing else is on tv and watch some live OCMs doing weather scope tonight. Ahhh the good old days.

Everything Else Classic TWC / TWC intro
« on: September 28, 2014, 06:53:31 PM »
Hello everyone I'm new to the site and just want to say this is amazing. I'm a huge old school TWC fan and to me the best years were 1991-1995. I was a young teen and with all the storms that hit the northeast coast where I live TWC was always on. Twc was on as background most of the time. 
I'm here with a question. I would love to have the TWC intro heard here (the first one that plays but with out narration)http://youtu.be/1CX5GRbqo7Q I would like to use it on my phone. Is it possible someone has it and I can dl and save it?  I sure do miss the old TWC and the great music played on the Local on the 8's. Even just seeing weather.  Can't sleep nothing else on TWC was best bet. Shame. I really don't watch anymore and have t for years and finding this forum made me see that I was not alone. And thank you to Twcclassics.com I go back and be nostalgic anytime. Thanks for your help
