Yes, I recall many times where Kevin wore his white suit :yes:  I like it.  Something different besides black all of the time.

I remember when Paul Goodloe and Jim Cantore (possibly a few others) would often wear a white or bright colored coat back in the late 90's/early 00's.

This is the first time that's happened since the June 2nd relaunch, BTW.

It seems that all long-form programming will be preempted tonight. We have Carl Parker and Kristina Abernathy hosting PM Edition. I imagine that we will then see Adam Berg and Kristin Dodd host EE... But 9pm et-2am et will be a pretty long shift for them.

Wow, when was the last time they had three shifts of OCMs work weekends from 2PM-4AM?

Apparently not everything will be pre-empted. WWCH is on right now. In that case wonder if we'll see Forecast Earth at 1AM and/or 3AM?

Tonight has been a weird night so far; for some reason, Carl and Kristina did both hours of PME even though there was no preemption tonight.

Also, both PME and EE took a trip into the past by using their respective "signature" production music from the Aug 07 - June 08 era. I wonder what's up with that. :P

EE also started the show with a live teaser like they used to use earlier in the summer where Adam (or Kristin) stands at the wall with the 4-split storyboard.

PME also used their regional openers for the first time that I can remember, and man, is that animation cool or what? I really like it; hopefully they'll use it again soon so you folks can see what I'm talking about.
