    That's a quick fix. I am sure Cyle Dickens can go in there and fix it really quick.

    Talk about a MASSIVE upgrade for them!
  3. LOWERCASE GUY
    WYMT has switched to GrayONE fully for weather. The First Alert Weather logo is the same as that of WKYT. The banners are a little different as there's a yellow streak for the morning show which turns into a red streak for the evening shows. When an Alert Day is issued, the logo changes to say First Alert Weather Day and the banner part that is blue turns red. The background is mostly white with blue elements that also change red during an alert day. Here are some attachnments of both the blue and red look.

    We can add WEAU to the GrayONE List

    Looks like WDIV switched to Baron whereas WPLG is still on WSI. EDIT: I didn't see the update below. This comment can get deleted.

    Unless they are deemed as a "Legacy branding" as listed above. WHAS has always been the First Alert Storm Team ever since...04ish? And prior to that, they were just the WHAS Storm Team. (Unless Gray doesn't want WHAS's money anymore for royalties. Then WAVE will become the First Alert Station)

    Mark my words, WKYT WILL be debuting this month.
  8. LOWERCASE GUY
    WJHG is not on the short list. WTVM is though. There will be two stations this Monday that will debut.
  9. LOWERCASE GUY
    I highly doubt that happens as the stations only have 4 options to choose from; Blue/Red (KQWC), Blue/Yellow (WVLT), Blue/White (WAVE), Red/White/Black (WWBT). That said, I can see WYMT going Blue/Yellow or Blue/White
  10. LOWERCASE GUY
    WLWT and WLKY work as well
  11. LOWERCASE GUY
    KCTV will be either late this year or early next year. WALB was the one that I mentioned that debuted on Friday.
  12. LOWERCASE GUY
    Expect a rollout somewhere on Friday, then two on May 1st, one on May 3rd, one on May 13th, then two on May 15th, then one May 24th, then one May 29th, then one July 1st, then one on August 1st just to name a few. Not mentioning call letters, but I will say WXIX is NOT on that list.
  13. LOWERCASE GUY
    Looks like WAVE is next on the list!

    They should've bought back the KAKELand WeatherPLEX https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SR3SKHLGwTY

    Looks like Gray is trading KGWN in Cheyenne and its other stations for a new station in SLC.

    Nah. Too short of a URL

    Hate to speculate but…Diagrid V.1 graphics came out in 2012. The refresh came out in 2018. Potential 2024 refresh based on the 6 year cycle?

    WKBT has had them for over a year. They debuted them when they debuted Ross Overdrive in 2022. It was a test to see if their VP of news actually liked this vision or if he wanted to switch back to the old look. (I worked there during this transition.)

    I heard this from a colleague who works at an NBC Gray affiliate. It's not an NBC thing. It's a "Gray" thing. Eventually all stations will be removing their affliliation from their logos. The reasoning is to distance the stations from the affiliates and to separate itself from the fake news movement that the national media gets. Basically it's so people trust the LOCAL news and to take on their own branding and identity.
  22. LOWERCASE GUY
    The Wyoming Cluster for one...
  23. LOWERCASE GUY
    It doesn't even look like they went with red on the WX graphics, but rather....gray? Hmmmmm.

    As someone who worked for a station bought by Coastal Television only to get terminated 2 weeks after the fact. LEAVE....NOW!!!!!!!!!!! They come in with all of these promises saying they will make the newsroom much better, invest in a lot of new equipment, provide better resources, the CEO (Bill Fielder) who is also a politician (if that gives you any idea as to what kind of person he is) will act like he is your best friend, has your interest at heart, then when he takes over he eliminates about 90% of the newsroom staff. He will offer you a severance of 1 weeks pay and an extra weeks pay if you sign paperwork promising not to discuss what happened. Spoiler alert, none of us did, and we all took to the competition and newspaper. This company makes Sinclair look like a 5 star company to work for. The guy who owns this is seriously scum. To those who work at KVRR and KQDS, get your resume and reel ready and be prepared to be on the chopping block if you do not leave immediately.

    Add another person retiring in May. https://www.news8000.com/news/local-news/chief-meteorologist-bill-graul-to-leave-wkbt-news-8-now-after-25-years/article_a706ef36-f056-11ed-aab1-f3f2d1e9be78.html
