Wait, they played storm alert music on the LF?!?!

Did I confuse you, Victor?  Sorry.

I was wondering if someone could possibly record the storm alert bumper music. I think I may have heard it, but it sounded like the same music played for the tropical update. Is it?

We're referring to the same music used in 2006 during the Storm Alert LFs. They used both tracks today when going to break.

They played the other Storm Alert theme from 2006 when going to break at :55 this hour.

This.

They played it as a bumper when going to break.

It seems like Mark may be headed down the same road as Marshall. I don't think now would be the point in his career that he'd be promoted to YWT.

I have some on VHS here; I'll have to convert them, though.

Did you actually get to see that tornado and/or feel its effects? That must be pretty frightening.

They played a very extended cut of the tropical Severe Weather music at 7:10 AM ET. In fact it lasted so long, the music looped through almost twice.

Quote fixed.

I'll have a clip up later today.

Today, with Heather and Nicole hosting YWT, they're using a more polished recorded teaser like the other shows, but the opener is still being played separately.

You can tell TWC is getting excited; this morning they pulled out the red, black, and white BOTTOMLINE graphic for Dolly.

He was on last weekend, but not this weekend. Do you know something we don't?

I can't imagine how Carl would feel going to a concert the way he sounded. That would have to suck if he spent a lot of money on tickets...

BTW, I wonder if Adam will cycle around and have next weekend off with Carl working the shift instead, it's quite a possibility.

For some reason, that always seems to happen with new storms.
