Yah, I noticed it awhile back. Not particularly exciting.

Much better than what they had previously if you ask me. The layout looks cleaner. I take it they're trying to match the website to the on air graphics which makes sense.

Looks like there's another "new" weather.com coming:

I saw that the other day. I thought it was funny when the announcer mentioned that weather would be front and center, yet below the current conditions were the usual stories about whales, creepy buildings, and 80s bikinis.

Sorry to burst TWC's idea of their website, but it's not that new and it's not that amazing. All they did was make some slight layout rearrangements by placing all the forecast tabs/other info on the homepage. Although it is more convenient that way imo.

Did they remove all the forecasts videos from weather.com?
Seems I can only find them in the video section of the phone app.

I've been TWC-less on TV for nearly 3 months. So visiting weather.com, I noticed the headline article about Winter Storm Juno labeled as a special report. The special report thing makes it seems like they're doing a post-documentary about a storm that has already happened when it actually has barely gotten ramped up. It doesn't make it sound like they're doing live coverage.

It seems TWC is silently phasing them out.
