Nicole Mitchell and Kim Perez on YWT this morning. What's an odd pairing.  :blink:

Is Heather off? :blink:

And, is it a permanent change now that EEWC is solo? :dunno: Just because they got rid of 3 OCMs?

Yes. Your going to see that many of them are off for most of the week. I'm interested in seeing how things go. I expect to see alot of odd pairings. It wouldn't surprise me if some of the senior meteorologists that we don't often see, like Stu Ostro and Keith Westerlage make appearances before it's all said and done.

Though its unrelated, many of the local stations here have been operating on a very skin and bones staff since the middle of last week, because so many regulars are on vacation. The point is, this is a very popular time for vacationing, and your bound to see very skimpy staff's.

I don't think Keith Westerlage works at TWC anymore, as his profile was removed last July. That might of been also why the OCMs started wearing ties again at that time, up until just within the past few weeks.

And it continues to happen during DPh4. Nick's Titan wasn't working so he asked Mike to advance it.

I think you're correct :yes:  From time-to-time I check the website tvjobs.com, just to see who's where, and it had mentioned Keith Westerlage as "On The Beach" which in TV World, means that they are currently not employed by a TV station/network/company..w/e.

Last night, Adam Berg was on the overnight EE. There was a date on the HD wall screen in small print...Adam couldn't read it and said that "you have to be Superman to read that text!"

It's even hard for the viewers on SD to read it.

Wait, so Kevin was on DP instead of YWT today? That's extremely odd.

I can confirm that Keith IS, repeat IS, still with TWC.  :biggrin:

I can also confirm that Dennis is NOT. He was also let go along with the others during the layoffs.  :(

I guess Paul Goodloe's yearly ski trip to Steamboat Springs is still on for this year. Carl and Paul were discussing it just now during the Ski Forecast.
