Was the coverage that showed during the 3pm hour dual-feed?

If I recall, probably, seeing as how they followed the longform schedule and it was just Adam by himself and it was an untitled PM Edition show.

It wasn't dual feed; it was nationally televised. I was watching it on satellite.

Scott Williams is reporting live from the tornado-ravaged areas of Ohio. I believe this is the first time Scott has done a live report.

I don't care for him that much, in front of the maps or in the field.

There have been weather warnings for our area the past two days.

Oddly enough, they are tagged with an obs site of "ALHAMBRA" (the Phoenix neighborhood) while everything else is Phoenix, Phoenix Area, and Mesa.

Rest of the STAR seems normal, but...this is odd. Is it to make it appear first, perhaps, by giving it "A"?

The same thing happens on my IntelliStar. On the large LDL when a Weather Bulletin is displayed, the observation site is listed as New Oxford, but New Oxford is not one of the three normal observation sites on my LDL. Coincidentally, New Oxford was the observation site on my LDL on the morning of June 2, 2008 from right after the blue LDL was introduced.

So this morning it looks like the LDA is no longer being used on the HD feed. Instead, a normal-sized LDL that cycles through the cities resides at the bottom of the screen. I'll tell ya, it's nice to finally see TWC live programming in true widescreen, something I haven't seems since the LDA has been around since I got the HD feed. Hopefully it's gone for good!

I did see the LDA on FO this morning. We'll see

Most likely the "other" shows will get a Big LDL in the near future i hope (without the LDA).

LDA stuck on NYC since 11:00am EDT
