Viewing the satellite version we have on campus, I think the new sidebar update is perfect. National radar rotation with major airport delays much faster is well suited for the national feed.
The local version on the other hand... eh... it's a start. The radar and improved almanac are very welcome changes but, unlike the national feed, where the auxiliary segments were "top [rain/hail/wind/snow] reports", the local sidebar segments had much more value. Now, the LDL lacks such fundamental information as barometric pressure and, even more importantly, the dew point! Dew point is only the best measure of surface air moisture content and how humid it feels outside.
Obviously the best solution is to simply add this information to the segment rotation on the main LDL itself. Once TWC does that, they can address the gaping blank space to the right of the video window and under the ticker and the almost totally pointless static "today's top stories" box at the top right. It was useful when TWC had a rundown, but now it's just a waste.
