Everything Else TWC / Re: General TWC Discussion

I haven't seen local on the 8's all evening. It's been the L bar ever since I've been watching at 9:58pm, even at the top and bottom of the hour..

I hope they didn't transition over to the L bar for good.. that would be the stupidest decision TWC has ever made..

I agree 100%, then the space underneath the maps would be filled in with useful information, and the SD channel would look better.

It would be nice if the 33% LDL returned = more wx info

FINALLY - someone else who wants to see it return, too!

Well, we finally see what happened to the old Global Forecast Center. Work stations for the meteorologists looks like all that's there.

I'm still hoping they'll make that into a studio for shows as forecasted.

This whole "Weather Channel Social" is already getting annoying. I mean, yeah its nice.. but, whenever the average viewer wants information about storms, this is a little unnecessary.

It's gone beyond annoying, it's becoming overkill. Leave it to them to run something good into the ground. It bothers me more that they won't stop mentioning about their partnership with Twitter on this. Like, who cares? 

Anyway, DP is using the LF squeezeback instead of a local forecast.

I have a partnership with twitter.. its called an account. 

But honestly, its completely unnecessary when viewers are looking to get useful hurricane information.

I haven't seen the L squeeze bar so called "blooper" (at the top of this page) since that day...

Was it a test?

I actually don't think the golf segment is a bad idea.

I haven't seen the L bar all day, LDL is only appearing on the 8s. I'm not quite understanding TWC nowadays, but I do know that weather is the last on their minds.

Let's not forget a childrens cartoon weather show, a game show and Law and Order. Maybe some adult late night programming too

I'd watch that too, seems that could be interesting.
As for The Weather Channel, shame on you. I might as well not even look on tv for weather on the weekends, so I tend to check out accuweather instead.

i don't know if anyone noticed, but at 10:41pm on Weather Center Live, a news story about the heat was playing and during the report, Meteorologist Jennifer Lopez who left TWC in 2009, was shown on KXAS tv for about 3 seconds.

Found that to be interesting..
