I've noticed this weekend the music on the LF for all day parts has been the same coming from the evening playlist.
Will they be changing it up soon?

In the late afternoon they were doing commercial free coverage. The LDL would go away as if they were going to break then come back on screen.
The LDL has been switched to storm coverage colors.

That was an error in whoever provided the data to you guide. YWT was on at 7am ET.

TWC must be repairing or replacing the video wall because on YWT they were in the studio but did not use that area with the OCMs sitting on the opposite side of the desk.

They are using the studio tonight but not the desk and are avoiding the video wall.
Segments are being done from the expert desk area.

First Outlook will be on at 3am and Wake Up With Al is on 5am to 7am.

Janel Klein works for KARE an NBC affilate in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Area so that's why she was reporting for The Weather Channel.

They did mention on air that Mike was traveling to  report on the storms.

Mike Bettes ‏ @TWCMikeBettes

I was surprised TWC went to regular programming at 8pm and was not covering the severe storms again till 10pm ET.
They did stay live at 11pm with Paul and Adam and will be live to 3am ET.
Chris and Kim were on 7pm and 10pm ET not sure why they left at 11pm.

Scott Williams and Danielle Banks came on at 3am ET for an early edition of First Outlook.
Since 11am Tuesday they have not used the studio.
For 3am Danielle was in HD studio area with the Telestrator at the podium for the start but most of the show is using the Digital Media Center and the old green screen.
