This is probably a long shot, but does anybody think they will do live wx updates on Christmas Eve or preempt some of that long form programming for this upcoming Christmas storm if it turns out to be as potent as it's showing up on the European model?

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

Awesome! I was wondering when these would get released. LOL!! Even if they were released earlier this year, they kept it hidden. Thanks for the find Zach!!

Thanks to Billy for posting and Zach for finding these! :biggrin: These seem to be the highest quality icons provided on the xoap.weather.com site. One shocking thing, however, is that the thunderstorm icon (with lightning AND rain) is missing. Normally that icon appears as numbers 1 -4. :blink:

You mean the ones just with the cloud, raindrops, and lightning bolt? Why would they  leave them out? :thinking:

I don't know. They have the scattered thunderstorm icons though.

Could be a long wait, sadly.  We've had TWC HD for well over a year in my area, but no HD Star.

I'm not too surprised. They're both freelances. But great pair, in my opinion.

Some OCMs had last week off because of Christmas, now I assume some others will have New Year's week off too, so this could be expected.

TWC is now in red mode for the Northeast/mid-Atlantic blizzard.

Edit: It may have just been a blooper, for they haven't used the red L3rds/live tag since about 2:30 PM ET.
