@factoryjones: #newweather Club TWC #iaot @freddyflaxman @daveclark http://t.co/5T8fNXfyPc Looks like a platform or something a desk could be put on!
Here's a response from Kim on FB about her new schedule, "I will still be seen during the week 7-8pm during the week and part of the local severe weather team on weekends and after 8pm."Intresting. What about DISH and DTV?, are they separated into regions? Would they go live to the whole country for a Nor Easter/East Cost Storm, Blizzard, or Tropical? I'm assuming this team will do the regular weather updates? What about Afternoon longform?
I'm guessing "the local severe weather team on weekends and after 8pm" means that if there is a severe storm in a regional area TWC goes live to those areas on a alternate feed while everyone else stays on long form.
I hope this alternate feed does not require the IS2 to switch it on because my cable system does not have the IS2.
What time of day do you guys think TWC will debut the new look?What I would do is show WATT during longform today and tomorrow, since longform is extended now, and go full out Monday at 8PM ET. There won't be any more Live Programing after WCL until First Forecast(are those still the right names?) Tues morn. I understand if the set and the in house graphics aren't show ready, but WATT must be ready by now!
LOVE the weather ticker during longform.YES! Finally! Although, the ticker/LDL almost blends in with the longform. No L bar during longform, oh well. I'm dying to see where the LO8/Live Updates/extended coverage fits in with longform. I was hoping that snow storm would hold true for next week but it doesn't look like it today. I'm also dying to see what DISH and DTV gets.
Did you find another YouTube vid?now we know where the phrase "Weather All The Time" came fromWell after seeing a youtube of the ocm announcing changes coming in november they were talking about lot8s. Weather all time also most likely means frequent local on the 8s also. There advertising getting your weather 24/7. So maybe ocm's will cut in for maybe a winter weather update or things like that. It seems unethical to put all info in one L Bar. Plus radar is needed too. So I would calm down just a little bit as 8 hours of no local on the 8s is not ethical. Again it might seem repetitive me but crossing my fingers for Jazz and instrumentals.
9PM Central. SorrySince when did WCL start at 9? I thought it was always at 10 after longform :huhIt looks like TWC's cutting back even more on weekends. Starting November 16th, they'll be no live programming at all after 2PM.Not even a 9PM show? Or, is it too far out? Either way, don't over due longform TWC! I don't want you in another Dish dispute and almost lose you again! Unless, Weather All The Time fills our longform needs. We won't know that until it starts.
On the other hand, watched the end of 9PM WCL last night and Chris was doing the regluar longform intro, then he said weather updates will be at least every 30 min. So maybe the updates will be more frequent when needed?

My channel guide has updated and is showing more changes for the 12th. Here's the new schedule:I hope that schedule's true! Sounds like a good trade off. I wont miss WUWA at 9/10AM! The only thing I'll miss is sometimes I would stop by WCL at 9/10PM but not every night. More so now because of the upcoming changes. If the schedule is true I don't think this is a big increase in longform. TWC may get more viewers at 2PM than at WCL at 12/1AM.
