Anyone notice that they had Alex Wallace on @ 4PM Sunday afternoon, then on First Outlook this Morning? They didn't give him much sleep last night. First time I've seen them schedule OCM's like that.

That's nothing... they have Greg Forbes work around the clock (and for a good reason, everyone relies on him).

Does anyone have any footage of TWC from yesterday from around 3-4PM?  Looking for tornado warnings where they listed counties in Indiana.


 TORNADO WARNING FOR...
ELKHART COUNTY IN NORTH CENTRAL INDIANA...
NORTHERN KOSCIUSKO COUNTY IN NORTH CENTRAL INDIANA...
SOUTHERN LAGRANGE COUNTY IN NORTHEAST INDIANA...
NORTHEASTERN MARSHALL COUNTY IN NORTH CENTRAL INDIANA...
NOBLE COUNTY IN NORTHEAST INDIANA...
SOUTHEASTERN ST. JOSEPH COUNTY IN NORTH CENTRAL INDIANA..

http://goshennews.com/breakingnews/x1190397084/Tornado-warning-issued-for-Elkhart-County
I need actual video....TWC has really messed up their warning system for Indiana and have declared that Allen county has been under every severe t'storm and tornado warning in Indiana since they went to this new graphics system

That Tropical Update Opener looks a hell of a lot better than the 2010 one. The transition to the palm trees swaying in the wind/rain is nice.

Does anyone know what happens if the "Yesterday's Actual" on the Almanac Screen shows "No Report"? Just curious if there was a reboot that I missed.

Sorry for the double post...

Stephanie was giving a Florida forecast when she said "These temperatures will give you an excuse to eat those sugary frozen treats at theme parks, and then you can attempt to hold it down while on a ride. I had one experience where....you know what, never mind. Jen?"

I can't remember what she said word-for-word, but it was something like that. I thought that was funny :P

It was probably too much information to say on the air. As I kinda know what she's trying to say. xD

Good graphics change, however the music is the same. :hmm: But maybe that's not such a bad thing.

has anyone seen any Android integrated commercials on TWC before?

and has anyone noticed during the Subaru commercial that the weather icons look eerily similar to the XL icons?

I noticed that SW now has its own show title thing in the LDL, but it didn't always have it, even when the other shows did. Does anyone know when it got that show title thing?

Danielle Banks and Ryan Goswick on WN. Interesting pairing, mainly because they're both freelancers (I believe.)

Goswick is a freelancer, however Banks works in the radio department. ;)

Danielle is cracking me up with some of these things she's saying. "Down in Savannah its hot, where my favorite Chef Paula Dean is. She'd be saying give me a stick of butter honey, but it be melting today" All in Paula's southern accent.  :rofl2:

Danielle Banks with Warren Madden on Weekend Now. So, don't worry, Warren is still with TWC.
