New TWC Basemaps 4-08-11

I was watching the weekly planner this afternoon, and it looks like TWC has changed the basemaps from a dark green/some brown color to an all tan/brown color.

They only changed the base maps on VIZ weather. I like it, much easier to see the differences between rain and just green base map.
