The XL's text-based forecast is  messed up too. It's just giving one-sentence per slide, which is just the forecast sky conditions, nothing else.

What if this was a beta test over all platforms? because i don't know how the IS2,XL,IS would see the same one sentence Forecasts.

and i was told there were no changes slated for this summer. (got this reply in July)

The full text based forecast is back starting with Tonight's Forecast and beyond.

TWC has this annoying graphic on screen during taped programming.

When the national LDL came on at 6:18pm for the local forecast it was on top of the graphic.
If the storm is that important then stay live if not the graphic on screen is really unnecessary.
What does that have to do with the LF though? :unsure:

To be fair, it's showing up during live programming also.

They are doing something different during live shows. The graphic is above the LDL.

Again, that has nothing to do with the LF :no:

You might want to post these on-air findings in the General TWC Discussion thread.  This LF thread is read by a lot who are only looking for things just related to the LF. ;)

HD LF video feed ran about 12 seconds (approx.) too late, there was a black screen with the audio still playing anyway and the HD LF gets abruptly cut off as there's not enough time to run the rest of the forecast.

11:28am LF - Storm alert music? :huh:

EDIT: Maybe it's not, but I still would like to know what that music was (attached a small clip below)
