This is a Weather Network song I'd really like to find. I don't have much idea about music on TWN from its first 3 years.

So this isn't a TWN song, but I was wondering if you could still help me. Would you happen to know the name of the song in this video that starts at around 2:05 during the Mexico commercial? I've heard that song used for numerous commercials, and I even caught it playing several years ago at a hotel on one of the hotel's private channels.

Sorry, I don't know that one off the top of my head. If I had to guess, I would say maybe in DeWolfe Library no later than CD 175 or so.

Theres a certain amount of songs that have not been found that I assume are part of the same library. That library is likely not DeWolfe, Killer Tracks (Network Music, Match Music, etc), or Westar because I've been through those ones and have not found them. The list includes some music pieces used in 2000 - 2003. Also some music used in Local Forecasts from 1995 and Primetime Local Forecasts from 1996-1998.

I've been a TWN fan since about 1996, have been watching since probably 1995. First saw it in 1993 on a vacation to the East Coast of Canada where the hotels had cable.
So heres a list of TWN music with Local Forecast playlists dating back to Winter 1991/1992. Some are incomplete as not all music has been found yet, but as you can see, they used to play more than one song, lol.

I have ideas to make a short local forecast from TWN and I used them. But it needs to be improved
- Old PMX icons
- More slides
The full one will have the Afternoon style then an EarthWatch local forecast and a Morning Report forecast right before Winter Storm 2009 knock out the power.

I took your powerpoint and retouched it. You have the basic idea and I see this a lot. All thats really needed are some graphics and proper centering. Taking your powerpoint, I spent a simple 10 minutes to retouch it:

No wxmancanada I know on Youtube that some people went to TWN and they will be in HD this year (2009) or 2010.
Also PMXs are only in Ottawa like you did buyed 2 units

Oh, Oh! YouTube! Well thats gotta be true then, the people on "youtube" have spoken!
PMXs are only in Ottawa!? Well the magic is certainly flowing strong here in Windsor tonight.
And TWN HD? We barely have OTA HD going.

I also received this same message. The virus program must be mistaking the XL program for a virus even though it isn't.

TWC kept using the 3000 until December 31, 2004. They still use the 4000s to this day meanwhile...
 
But what puzzles me is, why did TWN they stop useing them?

As far as I know, for some reason, the 3000's ended up suffering severe problems in which forecasts became virtually unreadable at times, I dont want to call it degredation, but it was pretty much at the same level. I also believe some more remote communities kept the 3000's until the 3000 and 4000 were all replaced nationwide in 1997.
