Since that's the case they should enhance the 16% to show the info the 33% showed.
I'm not quite sure how this would be possible, given the very limited space of the small LDL. Other than the line identifying the location, there's only room for one line of text with graphics. No radar, no daypart or extended forecasts: only one line each for current conditions and forecasts.
The 33% LDL would certainly give more information, which is why I am so puzzled and disappointed that TWC categorically refuses to use it. Two local forecast segments are hardly enough, the L-bar is distracting (and a terrible waste of empty space on the HD feed), and the 16% LDL is barely adequate considering the greatly reduced amount of weather information on the channel. The 33% would at least help to fill in the gaps, but TWC won't use it.
Now I'm wondering just how much longer it will be before TWC becomes a full-fledged network with only weather-related programming, with perhaps just an hour or so in the morning and evening reporting on the weather in a news-style presentation. At one time, I would have thought such a thing impossible. Now, I'm thinking it's only a matter of a couple of years, if even that long.
The network I once loved is disappointing me in ways I couldn't have even dreamed of.
