I like thunderstorms.
I'm a moderator at another forum, so my

FO started at 3 AM ET today, with Alex Wallace and Scott Williams.
So, apparently Weather Center was shortened instead of extended like what they said on twitter....

These maps never have been. Hence the ones you always saw during their HD transition last summer.

a lot of their graphics aren't 4:3 safe...it's also why the use the mass majority of them on the videowall to hide that they're not.

Due to that one storm that's gonna hit Martin's house (:bleh:), Nick Walker mentioned on his twitter that he "will be on an hour early". So I'd expect some longform being preemptied today.

TWC really needs to remove longform anyway, because i know it is saving them $$$ but look at it this way they lose viewers if they put the same fluff on.

And how do you know this?  :unsure:  I am pretty sure that if TWC was not getting the ratings, they would not have the long form on.

Because of the direction of the network, i know this because i talked with friends who love twc to death (long time viewers) but have seen this trend happen before in the past.

WUWA branded YWT at 10am... I expect Long Form to be preempted.

I am proud of TWC for one thing... They are actually covering weather :yes:
