General TWC Discussion

I may not be caught up to the times yet, but does "Weather Center Live" have 3 meteorologists on the show every night?  I always see Kelly Cass posting on Facebook that she will be on with 2 other people.  Is this a new format?

Usually, 4 or 5 OCMS appear (Chris, Crystal, Jim, Kelly or Kim and Paul or Adam). 2 or 3 OCMS do segments, and 2 OCMs do the weather radar and headlines. They have doing this since about September and October.

On NBC during the replay of the 10am hour of the Today Show they air the 7 Day Forecast done by one of the Weather Center Live OCMs at 2:50am ET.

OK wow, don't know when this happened, but weather.com has changed its look...again.  The changes are very minor, mainly only with the city search and menu bars at the top.  So far, I don't like it.   The navigation is confusing.

This could be in a beta mode, so if you don't see a difference, it may just be TWC testing something.  I've attached a screenshot below so you all can see what I'm talking about.

I like the basic rectangles.. reminds me of BWTL era.

Paul Goodloe is doing Weather Center Live solo at 1AM ET. I think this is the first time an OCM appeared solo at this timeslot in a while I beleive.

There was no 7 Day Forecast on NBC at 2:50am ET.
Instead they ran a log promo for Coast Guard Alaska and a short promo for Wake Up With Al.

The production track used for the Day Planner opener I heard it being used on a commercial tonight for a furniture store called Matthew's.

The new weather.com site is no longer in beta.

EDIT: LOL, maybe it is, beta popped back up in the address bar in the second pic.

They changed the mobile site too.

I don't mind the changes, but I don't like how the city titles cut off on the forecast tiles at the top.

Also, how the heck do I edit the cities? All I see is an option to save or delete them, and when I delete them, they don't disappear

Maybe the little plus icon at the top?

[Mike M]

That ADDS a city, I asked how to EDIT a city.

[Zach]

I didnt know you could even ever cities without adding or deleting them.. at least not on the older design that debuted last year

Yeah you did, and it was much easier to work with too.

Agreed. I've never been a fan of the "hover to get more links" navigation style. What was wrong with the old look? Sheesh, now I wish I had stayed with my 2008 layout. It's really annoying when a site you frequent changes too often!

[WeatherWitness]

See guys, I'm not crazy!

I didn't like the look of the site then, and I still don't like it now.

I have a bad feeling that TWC is going to update weather.com way too often now, to keep with user demands and such.  They didn't update the site for the longest time, probably realize that was a huge mistake, and will now want to update it every year or less.
