General TWC Discussion

At 9:30 EDT, "Right Now Weather".  There's a tornado watch out in NM and a pretty good cell with hail.

What do they lead with?  OMG TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SOUTH OF MEXICO POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT STAY TUNED!!!!!

I'm surprised they're not in Storm Alert yet.

Why does the LIVE tag never show during the national outlook map that is shown at :55 during EE?

[Spring Rubber]

Well, they're not supposed to use it when a forecast map is shown away from the wall, from what I can tell.

Now we have Nick Walker along with Betty Davis hosting the last hour of Weather Center and PM Edition today. Kind of funny and weird how Nick has managed to go exactly 12 hours from his old shift.

It's odd to see Nick on this late in the day. I imagine its probably wrecked havoc on his body too. He would probably be sleeping right about now. He's got to adjust to a whole new sleep pattern now. Or so I would think, anyway.

Yeah, that's true. Same thing for Jeff as well, and Rich when he first moved to the overnight shift 2 years ago.

Is Nick's new shift now PM Edition alongside Betty? Dave and Viv have been together all week with no sign of Samantha.

[Spring Rubber]

Sam just probably has the week off, or at least I would think that's the case. Nick and Sam ought to return to their normal spots next week; it was actually Carl and Betty on PME Tuesday and Wednesday and just Carl on Monday.

[Spring Rubber]

Figures, the last EE in SD and Cantore takes the day off. >_>

Good job control room...when Alex was at the wall for the weekly planner, they used the city rotating lower-thirds and the HD countdown non-stop while she was there.

I heard somewhere taht he was indeed moved to this new timeslot on a permanent basis.

Really? They'd change the lineup mid-week like that? It just seemed like it was done because Dave couldn't fill-in for that shift for whatever reason.

I'm pretty sure that was for Weather Center (which is where he initially moved to), not PM Edition.

TWC's clocks must be a minute or two fast. The Weekly Planner started at 11:19 AM.

Lately, the Weekly Planner normally starts at that time.
