Everything Else TWC / Severe WX, TWC only "breaks in" on specials - different areas
« on: May 10, 2008, 09:08:23 PM »
I am not sure if I am the only one that has noticed, but TWC does not always "break in" on specials, or "pre-empties" other programming when severe weather is in certain areas.  Seems like if severe weather is in Arkansas, Alabama or Georgia, they break in, but if its severe in Tennessee (only) or North or South Carolina, they do NOT break in.  A few nights ago, there was very severe and tornadic storms in Virginia and North Carolina, but "storm stories/Epic conditions continued.  Last night, there were severe storms in east Tennessee and even tornadic storms in southern West Virginia- again, the "OTHER" programs continued - TWC did not even "break in" for a moment that I noticed. 

NOW however- tonight, there are severe storms in Arkansas and western TN and they have "pre-emptied" Epic conditions.  I wonder if the storms had only been in TN they would not have broken in. 

Sorry, I do not mean to sound negative, but I was wondering if I was the only one noticing this, or if I am misreading it.  ??? 

I am more discouraged than anything, because I love TWC!!

Everything Else TWC / "confused" TWC forecast?
« on: March 21, 2008, 01:47:51 AM »
Well - on Thursday, TWC during the weekly planner, TWC was showing us in the 50s for forecasted highs on Monday (when that cool air is supposed to arrive in the southeast)... however, on the local forecast, it showed us in the 40s... now whats strange is now that the map on the extended has us in the 40s, but on the TWC forecast, they have us in the 50s!  Its flip-flopped!  Whats even more strange is that our local NWS was originally forecasting us to be in the 40s, now they are saying 50s, which is strange because they normally forecast us cooler than TWC does.  What a mess.  It will be interesting to see exactly how Monday turns out to be temperature wise... looks like none of them can make up their minds.  Now the locals were saying 40s, now they are saying 50s for Monday!   :wacko:
