I like how Vivian is making different facial expressions, but Jennifer is making the exact same facial expression in both images Alex and Andy posted. :lol:

Mike Bettes mentioned earlier that he and his wife are expecting their first child at the beginning of next year. Good for them.  :D

I've been noticing for the last few weeks that the 10am ET WUWA has been live. Towards the end of the 10am Broadcast, Al Roker says WCL is next.

November relaunch planned!? @Gt1racer: @freddyflaxman thanks for the reply Freddy is there an update coming soon to maybe allow new graphics to be shown during programming and 8s?

@Gt1racer: @freddyflaxman @gdlott reason I ask is because the Sat/Sun on the 7 day outlook is transparent and unreadable on this http://t.co/XdWoOdfQ3P

@freddyflaxman: @Gt1racer @gdlott Yep! We have improvements to legibility coming down the pipeline.

I'm sorry, but I am really confused as to what all these replies are indicating and where you are getting the idea there will be another relaunch.  The "November relaunch planned" to me sounds like it's referring to the relaunch from last November, and the improvements to legibility coming only sound like minor tweaks to the LOT8s and not an entire relaunch.

I was thinking from what he was tweeting back to me it sounded like he said yes to new graphics. In my thinking it sounded like a relaunch or some sort of update may come in the near future.

They finally re-developed a cohesive graphic design language for broadcast, web, and mobile. Nine months ago. They're not throwing that out yet, not a chance. Especially not after the capital they likely sank into it. Tweaks? Sure. Overarching new design language? Not a chance. And the idea that they'd revert to a four year old graphics package is laughable.

Judging from that page, it looks like it will be tweaking what already exists as opposed to a whole relaunch.  Time will tell...
