I vote that we pretend that there's a possibility that it's a democracy.

Oh wait... >_>

Is this running on Viz as well? If so, I can't wait for the dashes...

Nah, they shouldn't be in Storm Alert until at least Monday or so. I vote "take it down".

Local Forecast / Satellite Warning Crawl activated...

I was wondering when this was finally going to happen! TWC is currently using the orange warning crawl on the Dish Intellistar to crawl the latest public advisory on Hanna. Also, the time is currently frozen on Mountain Time, but it isn't labeled at all, just like a local Intellistar.

Can someone tell me why we just got an LF at :16 followed by the studio segment starting at :17?

I don't know what you heard before, but for this hour, they played the slow tempo Tropical theme over the Weather Center opener.

One of the songs he is playing is "Rose Colored Glasses". 

Indeed, I loved that song from this past February's list, but for some reason, it was vastly underplayed compared to many other songs.

They just played the "Hanna & Ike" opener at the bottom of the hour using the Day Planner music; how odd.

Yeah, I saw that commercial; IMO, it's borderline inappropriate how much they're gloating about their ratings.

...and what's with the freakin' red info bar for Hanna? They're not even in Storm Alert! (and yes, they've suspended the :08 and :38 locals)

Wow, this coverage is so much more dramatic than even the cat. 2 Dolly coverage now that they're riding on the Gustav ratings hype. To think something less than a major hurricane at landfall could cause such hype...

Finally, a classic - one that doesn't make sense!

Sharon: Now let's take it over to Rich, and he has more on Hurricane Ike.

Rich: Ok, yeah, let's do so.

Just now...

Sharon: Let's take a look at some of those stats.

Rich: Let's do so.

Sharon's wearing green tonight, isn't she? That's something you wouldn't see in the key wall days...

Oh yay, a Weekly Planner map for "-" where all the highs are in the 0s! As Rich said, "Yeah, it looks like the old cooling trend has set in here."

LOL, you've gotta love the look of exasperation on Rich's face when there's a technical difficulty.
