Don't know if this has been posted here before, but I found this earlier:

Interesting explanation of how the video screen works.

    * TWC saw its highest daily Total Day (3 a.m.-3 a.m.) delivery figures for the month of December to date among households and people aged 25-54, tying TWC with MSNBC as No. 1 among all cable news networks on Sunday, Dec. 12, among people 25-54.**

I've seen him with glasses before. He looks better with them imo.

Cheeseballs away!



TWC's 2010 icons are finally up in 93x93 PNG form on xoap.weather.com

Thanks to Zach and his server snooping for finding these. :P

It has always been like that with TWC and the numbered icon set and it beats me on why

Some of the icons really are duplicated, but the 3 smoke icons on there appear the same, although if you look closely they suggest animation.

I just noticed if you go to xoap.weather.com, it'll go to the old weather.com, but there will still be current content. :o

Isn't it missing the wind icon that uses the blue arrows instead of the text?

The arrow icon isn't part of the official set. It was first created for foreign weather.com sites (they also had a custom fog icon with a road on it).
