Thanks for the warm welcome and for those who have visited my tropicalweather.net website!  I believe that Martin found it somehow.  Very nice job with the TWC Today forums!

Welcome to the forums!

Now I'm pissed at Fine Living Network...They moved Iron Chef from 9 PM to 10 PM, and put some stupid show in its place.

Couldn't you find something else to watch until 10pm? I mean it's really not as big a deal, unless it were a 3+ hour change.

I think there is no reason to have that stupid bar on every single segment of the show. It's pointless.

Don't worry. It's never appear on the late night shows (weekdays Weather Center after 11PM/PME Editon weekends).

I don't think Sunrise Weather shows it either.

It's not shown on Early Weekend View (5-7am) either.

The studio colors are interesting during WUWA.... The pillars are yellow for the morning, yet the rest of the studio is pre-Ike PME colors.

Lower Bucks IntelliStar has Center City and Bordentown, NJ as it's cities. Center City is okay, but not Bordentown as its far off the forecast area and not a commen travel destination. I'd have Bensalem on there instead.

The Camden IntelliStar has Camden, NJ, Moorestown, NJ, and Bordentown, NJ as the 3 cities.

The 10am replay is going to seem awkward no matter what because they're trying to throw live updates with Steph in and try to make it seem like it's live when it's not.

The annual back-to-school ads have begun. When I saw YWT on the XL stream, there was a Wal-Mart back-to-school commercial.

They typically begin 1 month before school starts for some.

Technically, they could. It would be a half-assed job, but they could, They never would do it that way though.

So, how were all the IntelliStars able to display three-city LDL's in one day? Were they all added ahead of time, and then all the IntelliStars rebooted this morning?

my STAR rebooted last night, I saw it happen live during Weather Center, lol.

Satellite LF appeared at 10:08 PM EDT then the IntelliSTAR kicked in 5 to 10 seconds late.

ugh, again? It did the same thing at 10:08 last Monday and this past Monday.

Also, I've never seen the telestrator used in this position before!
