Well I have both a Flash Flood Watch and a Severe Thunderstorm Watch, yet only the Severe Thunderstorm Watch is showing up on my bulletins screen (22842). I've had the Flash Flood Watch since 6:00 EDT, and I checked the zone forecast for Ingham County... it shows up there.

I have no TWC feed (sometimes static), but the XL has been queing. I just caught it looping a minute ago. Now there's a blank screen with a Severe Thunderstorm Watch on the LDL.

Has anyone noticed that there has been a second or two of black before the station IDs and the local forecasts boot the past couple days?

You bet I have. Station IDs and promos are cutting in late, and commercials/TWC promos are cut in to. I also notice local ads are coming in a second late as well.
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed this then, I didn't say anything because I didn't think it was worth mentioning.

I've noticed on a couple of my E.L. clips that there is buzzing/popping right as the LF fades in and the narration begins. Is this part of that nationwide issue that has occasionally occurred?

Apparently I'm hearing buzzing on the HD LF as well...

The "First Day of Summer" LOT8s opener was shown today...it's really nothing special, though. :(

Was there one for Father's Day yesterday? :dunno:

Yes. I wasn't too crazy about the Father's Day one but I do like the summer one.

Interesting. They just played a Coppertone-sponsored UV forecast local insert, and right when the local portion cued, I heard the IntelliStar buzzing. I've never heard it outside the local forecast before.

Has the audio on anyone else's IntelliStar been dropping in and out? Mine has been today and a couple of times before today recently.

When did they change the textured snow to solid snow on the Satellite LF regional maps?

Was that first picture from the meltdown? Because I'm pretty sure the snow color codes changed around May 2005.
