At least they listened to us and brought the clock back. I'm glad its back, but i dont understand why it has all the time zones on it.

I don't know about yall, but the clock they stuck on the LDL looks tacky.
I agree. And they show the different time zones in the U.S., not just the one, exclusively for the one you live in.
Find Michelin tires at this dealer near you because so much is riding on your tires.

Well, why don't they put it on the ldl itself, instead of on the national feed?

No. The left, blank portion of the LDL is for ads.

..and a clock.

I did not know what I was thinking. The sidebar would be found on the HD feed, not the SD feed of The Weather Channel.

Is there any almanac data (sunrise + sunset, avg. high + avg. low) on the LDL? I don't see any. :(

No, apparently most average viewers found this information to be unneccessary so they opted not to include it on this LDL. :rolleyes: :(

I love the new icons (much easier to understand than the old ones) and especially the large LDL. Excellent work, and I hope even additional products will be made available in the future!
