maybe it's an error? everything  looked normal during Storm Stories at 4PM & 4:30PM CT  Why would TWC drop the LDL for long form?

Seems reasonable. His show is about the beauty of nature so they might want to minimize distractions

Was this the same transparent logo that they used during the Friday night movies?

To my knowledge, it's only going to be used during On the Edge with Peter Lik. There will no regular LDL, or the squeezeback  during On the Edge. The LDL will show at :07 or :08 for a minute and a half.

So if there's no squeezeback and just a short-time LDL, doesn't that completely go against everything TWC said about giving its viewers "live and up-to-the-minute" weather coverage? <_< I can't believe they're nixing this idea already, even if it is for just one show. :wacko:

I can see this idea lasting a couple weeks.

This is a big mistake, in my opinion.  Not only is TWC taking away actual weather programming for longform, but they're also taking away the LDL - the one remaining source of weather information - and replacing it with... NOTHING!  Just another step towards becoming a full-fledged weather-oriented entertainment network.

I don't see what is so particularly special about Peter Lik, ICHT, and Cantore Stories to use the transparent logo and take away the LDL. :dunno: To me all these shows are basically the same to me, though I don't watch any of those shows. TWC sure has made some dumb decisions in the last 2 years alone.  :rolleyes:

I believe the use of that logo was an error.
