Used to be everyday, now it's scarce.

-All the global warming crap
-Horrible promors
-RIGHT NOW WEATHER
-Depressing Intellistar backgrounds
-Lack of good playlists since mid 2005
-Terrible hurricane hype

Why are OCMs not using interstates on skytracker a lot? Cities look really weird when they don't have interstates running through them.

I do think TWC botched up the HD feed for satellite viewers anyway. When did they become a big fan for windowed maps? The more space you have for maps, the better.

It's just as annoying as that "RIGHT NOW WEATHER" window seen when Jim Cantore uses skytracker. It makes the font on the lesser known cities tiny and blurry to read. I miss the old days of him operating it at the desk, red mouse and all.

once again...SD & HD Satellite Local Forecast are completely separate from each other.

Nah, TWC will probably redesign the SD one and screw it up.

Whoa, my TWC is frozen. I have a frozen image of Bill Keneely in front of skytracker. The LDL time says 7:41 too.

Please, go to the satellite and Trammell already!

I just hate my LDL, since it signals my Intellistar is up and running.   

I like the satellite LDL because it's fun bouncing through all of the cities.

I'll like this HD transition if:

They keep the SD satellite what it is, so I can enjoy my favorite LF
They don't turn skytracker into some tilt-o-matic carnival ride eye candy radar (eg: Carl Parker, Kelly Cass, Betty Davis, etc, having false sweep lines to show NWS radars, etc)

And looking at that HD STAR, why did the icons go poof on the current conditions?

Well, it's kind of hard to read when the font is this small (ok, smaller than that). And I've been SO accomodated to metro forecast/regional forecast (or 3 day forecast)/precip/thunder (severe weather alerts)/radar and sattelite we've seen over the last 5 years.

Besides, why are satellite viewers gypped of an LDL from what I've seen?

Nooooooooooo

Please don't replace the SD satellite. I don't wanna succumb to the HD crap satellite they have now!

Is "Her Smile" by Lincoln featured on this site? It was one of my favorite songs from the January 2005 playlist.

Aw, no songs I know of.

I haven't checked it out on LOT8s, but it's kind of hard to when ALLEN JACKSON DOESN'T SHUT THE HELL UP. Had to get that out of my system.

I'll wait til Victor posts up April music on Youtube. Damn, I forgot to subscribe to his channel too.

I don't like the traffic additions to TWC. I usually watch my local news for that. The thing I really hate about the traffic conditions is that the traffic conditions remains on the LDL for like 650 years. Whatever happened to WEATHER being on the LDL?

I hope twctoday/classics still has the video stored somewhere.

And is Chazz "theweatherchazz" seen on Youtube? I don't know his actual name here.

Victor, I dug around Youtube a little bit and found one of your comments saying he took the satellite LF from twcclassics, but I don't ever recall it being on there.

What about the Park Place video? Does anyone know what site that video was supposedly on?
