Okay, now that I'm home, I can say that the national feed doesn't look too bad either.

And Martin, you might want to tell the folks at TWC that the DirecTV's IntelliStar (and probably DISH's IntelliStar as well) are displaying the IS-generated clock on the LDL, when I don't think they're supposed to be. The one for DirecTV is stuck on pacific time and I'm sure the one on DISH is stuck on mountain time, and it's being overlayed atop the national clock that cycles through the timezones properly.

There's nothing wrong with the clock on DISH

Is it cycling through the timezones properly or is it stuck on mountain time?

It never was stuck and I've been watching since WCL!

Still WUWA at 9AM CT Darn!

I was hoping for a return of the ID but oh well.  However, THANK YOU for adding Clouds to the HD National LO8!!!!! I've been wanting that since TWC HD debued!  Also, My guess was right, TWC is using their new Theme for the LO8 which is fine with me!

Also, I love the backrouds of the LO8 showing Daylight coming to the East, now the Central region.

Why are some people saying its letterboxed?  The DISH SD channel is not letterboxed shouldn't all SD feeds be the same way?

If you're curious, here's the press release outlining the changes.

This stood out to me:

New Local on the 8s:  Entirely new graphical look for Local on the 8s, coupled with new audio, will present a richer, more detailed local weather forecast every 10 minutes.

I wonder if they just made LOT8s music and are moving away from music from outside sources.

Question is will the real LO8 happen during longform every 10 min??????

Maybe they'll use the new logo music in that awesome vimeo video, Which isn't bad.

No more DP and no LO8 LDL during first segment of prospectors.

Everything is debuting tomorrow, so don't expect any changes yet.

Thanks for posting Mike's crystal clear picture Ana!  I wish they would do another panoramic of the finished product.

True but I do find it intresting that there's been no LO8 LDL this afternoon yet.
EDIT: never mind, regular LO8 LDL at 1:38PM CT 

Look what I found on TVNewser: http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/weather-channel-gets-new-look-set-mantra_b203159



Also pics are coming in from Paul, Kim and Shawn Reynolds on twtter but their not crystal clear. Ana, how did you get Mike's crystal clear?

Mike tweeted a pic of the set! It's looks great but, I can't post it. Wake Up With AL is on the Video Wall so the name is staying.

So is it safe to say those side areas are completely dead? I just don't know why they would take down a great studio, only to rebuild a half of one.

Could be that TWC is using other areas. In 2008, they only had the HD Studio.  Now they have the Media Center, GFC, etc.
Don't shoot me but is the LO8 playlist staying? It grew on me.

this is interesting, the schedule page on weather.com is down...

Been that way for days maybe even weeks. Too bad, that page would most likely have the correct schedule since it's TWC's homepage.

@factoryjones: #newweather Club TWC #iaot @freddyflaxman @daveclark http://t.co/5T8fNXfyPc       Looks like a platform or something a desk could be put on!

Pretty! I wonder if a base will go on top? Where did you find this? Its not on dave clark's twitter feed.
