alright, who is in charge of cuing the LF, because whoever it is sucks at their job...end of story.

seriously within a control room full of people, it takes over an hour to fix an overlapping LF?

Alright if the playlist doesn't start anytime this week, someone's gotta email Brian...If it doesn't start then either there's no Jan playlist or TWC might be reinstating bimonthly/quartly playlists

Last night, I tune to TWC and see The Week Ahead and hear commercial audio. Then the LF starts over again.

It was a mess...

Yeah...rain and sleet is one of the rarer (but still existing) conditions. It's in the XL icons and QuickCast.

Just saw an odd observation on my IntelliStar's CC screen: Light Freezing Rain and Fog.

 :blink:

It was using the Freezing Rain icon.

Earlier today I saw "Light Snow and Sleet" being reported. It used the light snow icon.

I've seen freezing drizzle. That's an odd condition.

I saw that yesterday, as well as Snow & Fog too.

Alright gumshoes, need some help.  My local weather channel added something like 20 songs to their rotation, and the song attached sounds awfully familiar...I think it was used on the Locals very recently.  I didn't get the recording quick enough, so this is the back end of the song...maybe someone can ID it just from this.

Warning...turn your volume down a little when listening.

I could be wrong, but I REALLY think that's Dave Koz.  :yes:

Has it been used on the Locals?  I've been looking and can't find it...but I could swear it was.
