Wait, do we know what type of cancer he had? I never thought that was ever known.
In response to what you said, Gary, I have to agree; his first week back was especially sad to watch when you saw just how physically weak he looked and how he often stumbled and got confused over words.

Hmmm... that larger banner is pretty blurry. Could you make a new one based off of the original that shows up better?

Everything Else TWC / Shorthanded much?

Even after putting in three straight hours this early evening on PM Edition, Adam Berg is back for the late night tonight to greet his gang for EEWC.
On top of that, Mike Seidel recorded tonight's weather.com forecasts and immediately bolted out the door to cover the tornado damage downtown. Having a few OCMs off combined with special coverage on a weekend is never a logistically friendly situation.

I never have any objections! 
BTW, Dave seemed much more himself today; he never really seemed to stumble at all or be at a loss for words. Same goes for yesterday. It's a shame, though, that he has his good days and bad days. I really wish, to put it in his own terms, that "he would have his health." While of course the details of his current health are none of our business unless he chooses to make it so, I really hope that he's going to be okay in the long run and that his life is not in danger any longer.

When Dave was doing a radar update today, things got a little crazy when Skytracker zoomed into the Seattle area instead of South Carolina, where Dave wanted it to go. His priceless reaction happens around 1:10 in the video.

We'll likely see some weekday OCMs coming in for EE tonight; there's no way Adam & Cheryl can do 5 hours in a row. I think I might've seen Alexandra lurking in the background, but I'm not sure.
Also, I wonder who'll host EEWC since Cheryl is working PME tonight. Warren? Rich? Sharon?

Everything Else TWC / The OCMs take over Weekend View (for a day)
« on: March 15, 2008, 07:13:15 AM »
With Dao Vu off and Julie Martin downtown reporting on the tornado damage, Weekend View is being hosted by just the OCMs for the first time in the show's history. Sam generally seems to be playing Dao's role while Bill seems to be handling most of the maps thus far.

Your Local Weather / Re: Atlanta weather
« on: March 15, 2008, 01:44:16 AM »
TWC is near the suburb of Smyrna, which is on the northwest side of Atlanta. The storm passed directly over TWC's studios but was not yet tornadic. The lightning show from the tower cam was spectacular, though.
I sincerely hope everyone in Atlanta is alright after this sudden tornado, which again proves that downtown areas are *not* immune to tornadoes.

Caal (in Alexandra's Southern pronunciation) is working EE again tonight, just like last night, which is really weird considering that yesterday and today are his two nights off. I wonder what's up with that.

Yeah, it was video of a heat wave, the first of three videos in the teaser package.

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but I take a stab at it and say that the L3 was a part of a pre-made teaser package in editing.

« on: March 14, 2008, 08:03:48 PM »the lower third was also displayed far lower than normal (in the area normally covered by the LDL).All lower thirds on full control have been doing that recently. However, on master control, the lower thirds display fine.
I noticed that; but this particular lower third would have been completely covered by the LDL had it not been off since it was the top of the hour.
