I've emailed Melissa several times about the playlist and have gotten no response, so I don't know what is going on here

Got some Clarification from Lee

Play list is still being worked on.  No ETA for you.  Sorry.  Keep checking weather.com once it is finalized, it will be posted immediately.

That figures; they're always delaying it nowadaze. TWC and NBC need to realize that the playlists are to be decided by the first day of the month, no ifs, ands, or butts. Never has been a problem before this year.

Nothing new. There hasn't been a playlist that started on the 1st since March. Seems they like to start new playlists at random times now  :hmm:

Good point, and I do remember a lot of playlists specifically over the past year that started late. I guess we should just remain hopeful, as there obviously is no set date for the beginning of the new playlist currently.

It's a HUGE FAIL, it was chilly, but it was 52° chilly, not 1° bone chilling.

Is it triggering the record low screen?

 :no: , it's just another one of those glitches that I suspect was caused by the LDL glitch that the STAR team fixed the other day. I would provide a picture, but I don't have my tuner pulgged up right now and I'm working on an XL emulation that was requested by a youtuber.

I hope you're kidding. I'm sure they have plenty of other things to be doing besides getting the playlist ready; I'm almost certain music playlists aren't one of the highest priorities. And contrary to your belief, there have indeed been cases in years past where the playlist wasn't ready by the first of the month.  :thumbsup:

Is is still Brian Picard who puts the playlists together and programs the music, or is this done by a company now? I ask since Brian often started the playlists on the 1st up until they started playing rock music on the LFs.

I found out that DirecTV is now using the LFs on TWC HD.
Classic TWC, Weatherscan, legacy WeatherSTARs, and classic Prevue/TV Guide fan.

i think TWC is using a music collaboration group to pick out music (maybe/not including brian) these might be the reasons why the playlists are late

1.not enough music found for the playlist.

2.music copyrights are failing when they reach twc which leads twc to find a different artist/group.

3. cannot find any worthwhile songs for the playlist, which leads to songs already found on the music computer/wuwa playlists.

there are so many sites to look at and twc should look at this one for example
