when the local forecast first started local, the radar map was a dark puke green, with the black font, then on the next one it was the normal map with black font, im guessing it just takes a while to load. these maps they're using on weather center live are great, but you can't read the font at all on SD, i wish they would just letter box rather than zoom to SD.

the lot8s keep buzzing at the same spot each time lol. also noticed during the now screen the temperature actually changed while it was up. went from 54 to 53. i thought it was pretty cool

i believe it is a target, or maybe a radar symbol of some type. Maybe its a nod to "WeatherScope"? idk.

yeah, someone had posted that earlier today, just hoping they letterbox it for sd... although they probably wont. It's not hard though! espn and foxsports1 do it.

Jen Carfagno and Alex Wallace will kick it off.

I really hope the video that was posted depicting the changes is what the graphics will actually look like and not just a mock-up.  They're very good!   I guess we'll know in about 6 1/2 hours.

aside from the expert desk, im sure it will look exactly the same. I'm so pumped I can't sleep... i don't wanna wait, I keep hoping they will let it slip after midnight
