You company probably has a low budget and thus can't upgrade.

That's good to hear, Kyle. 
It's about timeNo offense, but it's kind of rude to say that. It shows that you are impatient.

It's finally playing! I'm recording it but it didn't start until the transition from CC to metro conditions.
I'll see if I can try to record the full song later today. If not, I'll upload what I have tonight.

I hate it how some songs play much more often than others. I'm trying to capture a 2 minute clip of Lake Effect by Yvonne Ayers but it hasn't played at all yesterday afternoon and so far today.

Yes, I've been looking for this forever! I looked up the songs by any possible artist whose music sounds like that song and had no luck.

Apparently not everything will be pre-empted. WWCH is on right now. In that case wonder if we'll see Forecast Earth at 1AM and/or 3AM?

Oil went back down to $114 yesterday. The average prices for gas in NJ went down three cents in one day! The average USA price for regular is now at $3.69, more than 30 cents cheaper than this time last month.

They're called subheadends or telephone offices. Currently they have no Stars in them but they could figure out a way to place a Star in one of them. It will likely be the best way to give a more local weather forecast to us TWC viewers. As for headends sizes, yes I may only be 20 miles from Philly but the temperature difference between Downtown Philadelphia and rural Bucks/Montco/Chesco and the Pine Barrens can differ greatly. Heck, Bensalem and Levittown's temperature differences are often 5-10 degrees and they're less than a half hour away from each other!
Also, headend sizes isn't the only reason why I refuse to switch...

Yeah I always wondered why there is no traffic in the Atlantic City STARs. I know the IntelliStars in Ocean County get traffic from NYC (which is pretty far), and the Vineland IntelliStars/Weatherscan get traffic from Philly. So why no Philly traffic reports for Atlantic City? People travel between those two areas all the time.
