As you know, the music on The Weather Channel has been evolving over the last several years toward a more contemporary, appropriate play list. The music played during full-screen Local on the 8s on The Weather Channel during the afternoon and morning day parts continues to adapt. Going forward, our music team will keep investigating different genres and change selections as needed to stay fresh and align with The Weather Channel brand.
That's all I can say for now.

Banned because you may have been joking, but the tone of your post was rather rude and unnecessary...

« on: January 16, 2012, 02:14:40 AM »Didn't they already have a show with this same title or a pretty darn similar title years ago?Yes, Surviving the Elements, though the two shows will have totally different content delivered not of the same variety.

Last night (before I went to bed, which was really this morning 
), I got my CC image page to force nighttime icons! 
What I managed to do was add a second source into the XML parsing algorithm to grab Wunderground's almanac data, and from using the sunrise, sunset, and the current times, I could make the script determine whether or not it's day or night. These are the variables I used:
It's nighttime if...
It's daytime if...
There is a glitchthat I cannot fix, however, that for some odd reason, when it hits midnight at any given location in their local time zone, for that hour, the daytime icons come out. 
Anyways, sorry for the long post (tl;dr?).. but I thought I would share with you guys since it literally took like 4-5 hours for me to get this perfect in determining the time frames to use. No joke!
Here's two comparison images I have attached, and the link to access the CC page on my server is located in my sig.. just change to your location of choice though after the '='.
