Tonight on EE during the Weekly Planner, they showed a "Weather Extremes" lower third, then after that finished they moved back to the regular forecast lower thirds.

I had a feeling we would start seeing them working together again more often now that Dave's out of the way. He used to be the primary fill-in for Day Planner Mon-Wed and for Weekend Now until getting moved to a Wed-Sun shift.

It seems to me that Carl is more comfortable and conversational when working with Jennifer. When he's working with a few other OCMs, he has a tendency to be "strictly business" at times.

Well they are. Where else would our trash be able to go without landfills? And the trash itself is burned for energy in some places. :yes:

During the middle of PM Edition tonight, the spotlight shining on the American flag burned out. It was lit at the start of the show but burned out by the time they returned to the desk at 5:25 PM CT. I wonder if they stayed away from the desk for so long because it was flickering or something. The set is really starting to go down the dumps lighting-wise. :(

On a positive note, master control treated us with a classic extra-long PM Edition opener at 5:30 CT. They haven't used one of those in over a year or more, I'd venture to guess.

Now tonight on EEWC, the 03-05 style lower thirds have surfaced again. (with the frozen 05-07 EE background)

It seems that TWC's recently launched/relaunched a new site http://www.weather.com/tv/. I've seen it mentioned various times today after Weather Ready and Health segments
