Was that pic taken during Gustav? Were NBC and TWC negotiating at that time?

The rerun of WUWA won't bother me either way. I almost always watch The Today Show in the morning, so I still "wake up with Al".

TWC was still owned by Landmark at the time, although they did start sparingly show NBC reports when the buyout was announced in July.

Al did a weather walk stating a willy willy is a sandstorm in Australia when in fact it's a tropical cyclone in the Australia area.

Actually, I looked that up, and it appears to have both meanings. :yes:

Yes, it used to go by both meanings due to a terminology conflict:  The United States National Weather Service defined it as a hurricane near Australia, but the Australian Bureau of Meteorology defined it as a dust devil.  The American Meteorological Society recently agreed that the willy willy should be used for the dust devil, so scientists around the world are no longer using that term for a hurricane.

I wonder how Mike's gonna do with Al this week on WUWA? (I was even surprised to read tonight that Mike would match up with the big guy, and not Kelly who'll be on YWT this week) :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:

Al is also going to be hosting the show live from Key West today and Tuesday. That should be interesting.

How well did Mike and Al get along on the air earlier this morning?  I'm beginning to wonder who will co-host with Al as they allowed Stephanie to go on vacation just a week after the release of the show. :thinking:

She is actually not on vacation. She is on assignment on the west coast. As to what that is, we don't know but this is what Al and Mike have both said.
