According to TVNewser, only 100 markets have cleared the new hour so far.

Not exactly sure when this started but WSFL is doing morning weather updates and news updates throughout the day at the :59 mark of the hour. I haven't really caught the weather updates but the news updates I have seen so far are branded under "Inside South Florida" (their weekend show) with tech and sports news. Hopefully Scripps will use their WPTV team for some local news content.
Some changes coming to WTVJ starting tomorrow. Johnny Archer moves to mornings from weekend evenings. No word yet on who he will replace. Angie Lassman goes back to 11 am and 4 pm.
Kendis Gibson joins MSNBC as weekend afternoon anchor 2-4 pm. His first day is January 19th.
