General Weather Chat / Heavy snow warnings, blowing snow advisories, and such
« on: January 08, 2011, 11:24:28 AM »
Who here thinks the NWS should bring back the winter weather warnings they dropped after 2007-08? This includes Heavy Snow Warnings, Snow Advisories, Blowing Snow Advisories, etc.
I really think they should, because they are more specific and give people a better idea of what to expect. A winter storm warning is too generalized and could mean anything, like snow, sleet, freezing rain, or ice. Blowing snow advisories should especially be brought back as you can experience blowing snow even when not a winter storm is present. I know sometimes you can see a little bit of ice during a snow storm, but most of the time, when the NWS calls for just snow, you get just snow most of the time (at least during the storm).
I'd like to hear your thoughts on this...

Everything Else TWC / Re: What would you do to improve TWC?
« on: January 08, 2011, 11:15:47 AM »
-Show more indie music
-Less repeats, more new LF music!
-Stop playing Chris Geith music for awhile... it's getting way too old.
-Release more smooth jazz CDs and do away with that TWC Music Store
-Extend the daytime music another hour or two into the evening... it's way too short.
-Limit the long-form more
-Fire Sam, Todd, Eric, Al, and Stephanie (they are all terrible)
-Bring back Dennis, Dave, Rich, Alexandra, and Kristina! (Yeah let's do that my friend!)
-Pull TWC out of NBC and give it to someone else!
-Replace the crappy IS icons with the more realistic ones from '06
-UPDATE THE INTELLISTAR AND WEATHERSCAN!
-Not putting so much emphasis on Jim, Steph, Jen, and Adam.
-Cancel Cantore Stories and WeatherProof, and bring back Atmospheres and the Weather Classroom
-Show more documentaries than reality shows
-Move Weather Center to daytime, bring back the double E
-Lose the iPads! We all know how awesome they are (NOT!)
-Get rid of that "Digital Media Center" (I'm gonna laugh at whoever came up with that crappy idea)
-Not using RED MODE GRAPHICS 99% of the time.
-Bring back Storm Alert and use it only when absolutely necessary.
-Use more positions at the HD Studio instead of sticking with only two.
-Bring back that pretty sunset background in the studio
I'll stop now...

Unacceptable.

Everything Else TWC / Re: General TWC Discussion
« on: January 07, 2011, 08:37:34 PM »It makes more sense to just do this and have them host the whole week. I don't understand why a "mid-week" change in OCMs is needed.The reason why they did that was so most of the full-time OCMs could have an equal airtime (Mon-Fri, Sat-Wed, or Wed-Sun).

TWC's begins morning-themed programming at 4AM, so they should start it at that time.

« on: January 07, 2011, 01:23:14 PM »Vocal country music at 7:08 AM EST? During YWT, not WUWA.They've been playing it every hour at :08. Is TWC paying a tribute to the artist of that song, whoever it is?
It appears that Carl Parker and Heather Tesch now host Day Planner Monday-Friday.It's been like that for about a month.

I have no opinions about this, since it's not surprising.
The squeezeback during long-form looks interesting. I guess they're unhappy with their previous two attempts (the original L-bar and the current "L"-bar?)I thought "squeezeback" was the technical term for the L-bar?
