Is traffic back on for anybody??? They keep saying, "Now your local weather and traffic on the 8's." :dunno:

Bad habit.
More like bad screenwriting on the teleprompters  :P
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

Seems TWC is airing this lineup before the :58 LF as of yesterday:

- Normal commercial break
- Station ID segment
- TWC ad
- LOT8's sponsorship ad
- Second half of the "Ice Pilots" LOT8's intro
- LF

That's a terrible lineup IMO   <_<

The reflecting TWC logo on the IntelliStar LDL is back again, running over the satellite LDL.

The Global Forecast Center now has its name above the LCD screens.

I remember seeing that phrase in the background of the old, pre-2008 set...

The Weather Channel logo on weather.com has now turned green.

Which means "Green Is Universal" week is coming up.

Pre-emption is happening now as well.  A tornado touchdown was reported in Norman! :o

EDIT: Chris Warren, Kelly Cass, Jim Cantore, and Dr. Greg Forbes are providing coverage.  Brief shots of Mark Elliot in the Digital Media Center.

Wow, Kelly is going to be by herself? :blink:  Bet she's going to be exhausted after tonight.

Do they ever change the local forecast playlist during storm coverage?
Some of the rock songs just seem like they should not be playing during storm coverage.

At 10:54pm ET TWC has skipped their first commercial break during the tornado coverage.
