It's always been used on weekends during this time.

TWC continues to be shorthanded again today. They've called in Ray Stagich to work Weekend Outlook; normally he only works Saturday.

BTW, the male:female OCM ratio yesterday was 8:3. Normally it would be 5:6 on a weekend. That's a huge difference!

To add to that, Kristin Dodd is strangely Ray's partner today for the final two hours of WO.

Just a few seconds ago, Ray had to excuse himself when he said, "Today's not going to be a very nice Saturday...excuse me...Sunday. I'm usually here on Saturday so I got a little confused there."

I'm seeing no radar on Weatherscan right now. I wonder if this has to do with the DST change, like how TWC is showing the satellite forecasts.

They just used the pre-Lifestyles 3-box where the two upcoming segments are displayed on the right and a map is displayed in the big frame. I haven't seen that since weekday full controlled WC was discontinued.

Now we're getting Master (possibly Dwight) to do behind-the-desk shots of the big desk... ^_^

Jeff Morrow was minding his own business doing a Skytracker segment last summer, and that popped up (yes, he could see it).

Doesn't it seem like these errors always happen to him?

Random thought while watching First Outlook: Nick Walker looks like J. Peterman (played by John O'Hurley) from Seinfeld.

First Outlook is using the regular blue Global Forecast graphics at 6:25. Doesn't FO have their own graphics for that segment that's orange?

Yeah, but they seem to not be using it for at least the past couple of weeks, for some reason.

They haven't used it since they got rid of animated keys.
