I don't think they've ever used the Storm Tracker one, but the First Forecast one has been used on occasion. (especially on weekends)

He probably needs all the popularity he can get, as in the past two years, due to music fee increases, his company has lost a lot of biz, which is sad, because he produces quality stuff.

What do you mean by "music fee increases?" I thought the cost of production music was determined by the company/artist, not BMI.

He's not with BMI; he's actually with SESAC. Check this out:

Since when did the 2005 Evening Edition have a Severe Weather, First Forecast, or Storm Tracker opener? I don't recall seeing these openers at all.

They were originally produced as part of the package, but I don't recall them ever being used for those segments. However, I have heard the First Forecast track used on a few occasions as a "to bed" clip, the term used for music used before commercial breaks.

The term is just "bed" with out to, or "bed music". Commonly used during a transition between a VTR or Camera to a bumber / graphic out.
