Billy, I happen to be an owner of GRLevel3.

I have seen Greg Forbes use GRLevel2 Analyst Edition on TWC. I think that program is restricted in some of the TV news markets out there.

Also, does anyone have any video of Titan/skytracker being down?

Well, I just wish they'd shake up the music again if they continue.

It's been a while since I've heard some of my favorite songs from disc 1.

I found it pretty good. The only things that I really didn't like is that the Intellistar still looks like a pile of **** thrown together at the last minute. Also, the thing that bugs me for some reason is that when they switch OCMs during a forcecast, they talk for like 30 seconds before they switch to the other one. Whatever happened to "Alright that's a look at your forecast and here's Mike to talk about the severe storms?"

And Nick Walker really isn't a WC guy either.

The last playlist I liked was probably January 2008 (daytime).

You know, a city could be slammed with 5 EF5 tornadoes in a week and a tropical wave in no man's land will still have priority, storm alert and team coverage included.

Oh yay, now they've got someone on the phone for Eduard evacuations over a tropical storm that'll probably be a weak category 1 hurricane at the worst.

Look out.

Now there is, that pathetically weak Eduardo storm hugging the Gulf Coast. And believe me, TWC's been on top of it for every segment.

I think it just depeneds in what kind of market you are in. I'm in the Providence/Boston area, so my Intellistar has TrafficPulse.

If you're somewhere in I don't know, Idaho, they probably wouldn't bother to put up TrafficPulse.

Everything Else TWC / Re: When do you most watch TWC?

Usually when there's no sight of hurricane season.

Christ, can TWC ever go one segment without any mentioning of hurricanes?

That's practically why I stopped watching TWC over the summer.

I noticed them on my weather.com Gold, but not on TV BECAUSE DEAR GOD THEY SPEND EVERY SECOND ON HURRICANE DOLLY.
