So we have 4 OCMS on from 7 - 2 Tonight.

Yes, working tonight! Hope you can take breaks from Superbowl to find out about next winter storm! Me, Kim, Adam, & Sam live from 7p to 2aET!

Totally doubt that they're gonna have 4 ocms in one show. It's possible that Kim and Kelly will be on first, then Adam and Sam two hours later. (or vice versa).
Seems excessive for one of their least watched broadcasts days.
Is it really?  Well, that totally contradicts my post in the thread about Sunday being one of the highest watched days (though I wasn't speaking JUST for TWC). 

Very interesting they would have Sunday night be their live programming.

I think they were referring to it being Super Bowl Sunday.  Not Sundays in general.

Has anyone noticed that they are using a different looking Titan to show graphics lately? Or is that VIZ? Its the one that the map labels are yellow, instead of white.

EDIT: I think they have Tru Vu Max now. Thats all they have used during the 10pm hour of WC.

They're apparently undecided whether its weather center or pm edition.

@ 7:06 there was a bar at the bottom over the ldl that was showing upcoming shows/schedule for tonight. Is this new tonight or have they been using it?

They've already been using it for a while now.

Shouldn't the SD/HD Satellite LDL have a clock on it?

It did for a very brief time when the new LDL was introduced a year ago.  However, that was only because the IntelliStar LDL didn't have one, and people complained.  When the IntelliStar LDL got a clock, it was removed from the national LDL.

TWC should be able to re-enable the clock for Satellite viewers, it seems kind of ridiculous to not have one because it a hassle (on the DTV end) to have to constantly press the guide or info button just to see what time it is.  <_<
