Gotta love Monica Malpass and Rick Williams, but I don't like Action News anymore :/ I prefer CBS 3 Eyewitness News with Chris May and Susan Barnett

CBS 3 lost me as a viewer back in early 2003 when they rebranded themselves and a lot of the hosts left (Larry Kane, Tom Negavan, Amy Caples, etc). WPVI is okay, but lately I've been watching WTXF more. I like the fact they have their own Philadelphia morning show instead of airing a national morning show from New York.

I Hate this Long Form Programming Block, does anyone know when this nightmare will end and is there any reason by TWC doing this all over again? 

It won't, but why it isn't on the guide I have no idea. This block warmed up on me now, though I wish they wouldn't air FFN 12 times a week when there's only six episodes.

IMO, the long form schedule should go like this:

2:00-3:00 Storm Stories
3:00 ITCH
3:30 FFN

They also should ditch Day Planner and put Weather Center on 10-2, then either bring back AO or have PME start at 4PM. One hour of WC makes no sense, IMO.

Is anyone having problems with the temperature maps on their Weather Plus? Here, the color codes don't seem to match the temperatures. For example, there's red in southern Florida (which stands for 80's/90's), but the temperatures there are actually in the 60's. There's also green on the central part of the country (which means 40's/50's) when it's actually in the teens there.

If you're using a keyboard, you can hold down Alt and 167 on the Number Lock Pad.

Actually it's Alt+0176. 167 gives something else that's a bit larger than a degree symbol.

Neither are not even close to being new.

Yeah, when are they ever going to update the banners on those?

Early this morning, a new WeatherReady logo debuted on the UV index/weather safety tips screens on the Health and Ski segments. This makes the first graphical update on Weatherscan since October 2007.

Sorry, but i don't believe that technology upgrades should EVER be forced by law.

Agreed, especially if cable will also go all digital in 2012. Do you think anyone could afford digital cable on three TV's like what I have?

As of today, my cable box's guide now says "NBC Plus" instead of "Weather Plus."

If the economy is weakening, why are gas prices rising?

I'm having problems right now on Camden's Weatherscan. The video is very jumpy and blurry. The audio is fine though.

Back to normal.
