That Severe Update graphic is a part of the A&B package; why are they using it all day on PME?

Must be a blooper.

The Satellite LF flickered w/radar issues too. Never saw it before. Good thing i had my tuner running at the time.

I've seen that happen before, maybe a year or so ago. It's also worth noting that the base maps for the Thunderstorm/Precipitation forecast on the SD satellite LF have been updated.

Anyone else notice that they're now using L3s for Mike and Steph's names? Before they were like the President of The United States is on every network: you don't display their names because you should know who they are.

Yeah, I've noticed that as well. Wonder why they decided to change?

Abrams & Bettes has slowly been taking a turn away from the show focused around Mike and Steph towards being a more weather-focused show. The biggest leap came this January when they started doing the Weekly Planner and started covering much more weather at the maps. It's a good direction for the show, I think.

...and the new opener is awesome!

Yep, they're definitely still using SkyTracker for the SD shows. Just now on A&B, they were using SkyTracker, complete with the red zoom in box.

Cheryl called it Titan this morning on FO. She also said that the WPS-esque maps were running on Titan.

However, to support the SkyTracker argument, I just saw that "West Point" was still written in the Interstate font.

They've got a weird setup there now for sure; perhaps they're piping the SkyTracker feed through Titan, if that's possible? They were piping WPS through SkyTracker last week at times.

On some of the more wordy lower thirds, the TWC logo on the IS LDL covers up some of the letters on the far right part of the lower third.
