No Joy to This Timeless World either. 

They also should have 15 songs on daytime if it's gonna last from 6am-5pm. And guys I'm with Vic. If we stop persuading Brian and TWC execs for a new list we'd be having better playlists. Otherwise they get rushed and overwhelmed and they end up just randomly picking songs without digging deeper for new tracks.

TWC did not renew it's contract with Traffic Pulse, hence why all traffic products have bene pulled from tv, web, and mobile. There is a possibility TWC could find a new provider sometime next year.

I'm not that surprised... I knew TWC would stop using traffic.com eventually after the traffic overview problems and the removal of traffic on the LDL.

Interesting that they didnt renew.. does that mean the flow maps might return if they find someone else for a source?

I'd imagine that would take awhile to implement... the traffic pulse overview map was hard enough as it is. Besides, I believe Tyler or Martin said the overview map data was often outdated.

Banned because Aaron's double take videos on YT are boring

Banned for he abused that concept it's so old now. And please, does he need to have a video of the same song on three STARs and an HD satellite LF?

I'm pretty sure they are gone for good. I also notice the traffic segments on Weatherscan are gone as of last week.

I have a lot of options I still need to work out. I've always want to done broadcast meteorology, but recently thought about becoming a high school science or technology teacher. Or perhaps a graphic artist.

Thanks for posting the list, I see Randall chowning is back. His music hasn't been on since 06!

Actually his last song (or at least the last time he was given credit) was Pork Rinds and Brandy from April/May/June 2007. And I see TWC has once again spelled his name wrong... it's Randle!

Nice, very detailed! This was a very active and interesting season although we dodged almost all of them, which caused this to make the record books. I was also amazed at how large Igor became (the largest recorded in Atlantic basin). Is this being shut down 1/1/11?

General Weather Chat / Re: When Do You Expect the First Snowfall to Happen In Your Area?

« on: December 05, 2010, 03:34:17 PM »

It snowed briefly on Thanksgiving morning here but it melted once it hit the ground due to high ground temperatures and earlier rainfall. Other than a few flurries I don't expect any measurable snow for the next few weeks as we're in a pretty dry spell right now. The clipper that's in the forecast will miss us by the south.

No jazz at all in primetime? That must be a first. There has always been at least one...
