I've actually noticed a return of the real full screen LOT8's recently. Maybe TWC realized that some people had a hard time seeing their coverage with that setup during the Local Forecast. I honestly don't care what they do, but, personally, I check for the classic Local Forecast, and I really hope that stays.
The locals will be temporarily coming back during all live programming until they can fix a few things and send out an update. Then the squeezeback will return for :08/:18/:38/:48, and the locals will only play at :28/:58.
I know. I would watch it a lot to get my local info and I liked most of the music as well, but since I can only get my local info at 28/58.. I will most likely get my weather information elsewhere.I got word that it's still testing due to viewer feedback. It's mist likely going to be a permanent change but if we do complain, they'll yank the lbar locals outI just got a reply back too.
"Effective Mon, 9/12, we started using a squeeze back Local on the 8s during most live programming at :08, :18, :38 and :48. Full screen locals will remain as is at :28 / :58. It is most likely a permanent change, although we do continue to monitor viewer feedback. I will be sure to forward your note to our Locals team.
Thank you for letting us know what you think."
What possible benefit do they think this has? For viewers who actually watch The Weather Channel for weather information, very little. Unfortunately, this isn't the audience TWC is interested in anymore.

Okay, have the special WUWA lists been discontinued? They havent had special coverage in awhile nor preemption, yet playlist music is still playing...I have been wondering the same thing. I certainly hope they discontinued them. I would rather them stick with the non-vocal music playlists.
Metameme by STS9 with a totally different cut @ :38I know! I was in the other room and I heard it and I was like WTF?
