I found the information on TWC's Press Page

Additionally, Clark announced a complete refresh of the network’s “Local on the 8s,” localized forecasts that appear every 10 minutes at :08, :18, :28, etc. The new “LOT8s” will feature on-camera meteorologists with more locally relevant forecasts.

RIP Localonthe8s 

IF it happens, which we don't know yet until we see it. The death of the local forecasts was bound to happen. Wasn't it just a few years ago that we believed TWC would cease to exist without LOT8s? Well, with the novelty of phones and the internet, there isn't much use for LOT8s anymore.

Just terrible to see what a waste the IS2 has become due to this. at least it means no more vocals

not sure what happened to the 2008 one, but isn't the 2005 song playing in its entirety on the LF?

i'm currently looking at alternatives to college imp

There are plenty of good trade schools in the area. College isn't the only ticket to success, especially with just a degree imp

Here's from the NYT

For instance, there will be a revamping of the forecasts known as “Local on the 8s,” Mr. Clark said, and a customization of coverage so that while viewers in markets affected by severe local weather are watching coverage of that news, viewers in other, unaffected markets will be able to continue watching regular programming.

Simply put, the "dual feed."

Whatever happened to it? Did they cancel the dual feed, because I remember them airing the feed earlier in 2010.

Local Forecast / Re: March 2013 Playlist

If I'm correct the adds to the playlist are,
Van Morrison "Brown Eyed Girl"
The Police "Every Breath You Take" (live version)
Pylon "Little Red Riding Hood" (instrumental)
everything else is the same from March.

There is also a new instrumental song playing on the overnight and morning.
