Maybe they should also fix the lighting in the studio while they're at it. >_>
The same lighting that's been broken for four or five years now? <_<

They were doing that last week as well. Most likely because they're working in the studio currently.

Also have been hearing the occasional drop of a tool or retraction of a tape measure in the background of Heather's live shot at the expert desk.

That makes since, being that they are gutting the GFC, which is right behind the Satellite Center (control room)

The satellite center isn't the control room.  :thumbsup: Control room is off of the GFC area I believe. Closer to the HD studio when they built the new one.

I'm pretty sure the satellite center is a control room, judging from the equipment I see from a distance away.

No, This is the control room here Go to pic's 46-48 http://www.weather.com/tv/studio/slideshow.html If the satellite center was the control room, they'd call it that. Satellite center is most likely like what most news places call the "assignment desk" and where the coordinate calls to get video from other news stations and such.

Those were taken in 2008, before the sat center came to be ;)

And your point being? They wouldn't move the control room, that's way too many wires and such to re-route. You do realize that the producers have to get ready for their show somewhere before they go to the control room don't you? As well as the people that don't do weather, they have to be somewhere too. Its called the Satellite Center, because its a Satellite Center. Not a control room(or at least main one). Well the satellite center didn't come to be until they also started using the expert desk. Satellite center probably has been there for a while.
We all could be right about both. Let not argue this point, its plausible both could be control rooms. No idea why I cared to argue this lol. Sorry... :wacko:

I don't doubt it now that I think about it(thoughts a little slow in the AM). I've seen TWC doing live updates on other networks, so I guess they'd need a second control room or something . Question though: Where do the producer work before there shows? I've never seen exactly, only the weather producers.
EDIT: The master control room isn't used now? Oy, I need to be updated on some things.
