Paul is back tonight; his voice still sounds a little crackly, though.

Carl is still co-anchoring, though.

And the lights are dark blue! It looks like they finally fixed all of the color schemes. :happy:

Paul's voice does sound very raspy.

Guess he still hasn't quite recovered from that long shift he pulled over the weekend.  :D

IMO, TWC was a little rude to Paul making him work so long. <_< Maybe I'm overreacting. :unsure: But it's been three days since he's worked and his voice still hasn't recovered. :no: :dunno:

It's possible he volunteered to work that time. It is big overtime bucks!

I don't think they get paid OT, since I assume they are salary.  But, I could be wrong, or they could get a raise or whatever.

But, we don't know if Paul just had a cold after his coverage, or if it could be him talking too much. :dunno:

I guess somebody bothered to make a "Local on the 8s COMING UP NEXT" graphic with the Lot8s logo and EE background; they used it on the LCD screen behind Paul going to the last break.

I just watched the first hour of today's FO from my recording; at :20, Kelly said something you don't hear very often:

"It's 20 past the hour now; we'll take a look at the precip in just a little bit with Jeff, but first the jet stream."

Then when she was done with the jet stream outlook, she tossed to Jeff, and he said something that you do hear very often:

"All right, let's do that!"

Wow, I don't remember the last time I've seen her on FO! Had to be at least 2003.

Just saw a new promo run for Weekend View. I bet we'll start seeing LOT8s ads for it, too.
