TWC is now broadcasting in Full HD

The weather channel is now broadcasting full hd and it's looks amazing this is after Stephanie Abrams said it would be 2 more weeks.

What a nice looking set I will try to post some screen shots later

I was looking at Stephanie Abrams...on mute

Damn! Definitely a huge improvement. The clarity is pretty damn impressive.

Now we get to watch Cantori fake some reports in High Def

Awesome! There's nothing better in 1080 than weather. Now hopefully their next step will be actually talking about real time weather again. I'd hate for a major severe weather outbreak to interrupt a rerun of "Storm Stories"!

Excellent. This is just what I've been waiting on... I feel like I'm about to take my gardening to the next level now.

For some reason on my end its not showing it as "stretch" mode, it has the black sides or isnt a "full screen". Usually with DirectTV that means its an HD channel but not broadcasting in HD. Anyone else seeing this with DirectTV?

Oddly enough, the local on the 8's portion just came on in "stretch" mode. When it went back to normal broadcasting it has blue bars on the side that say HD, kind of annoying.

Looks great... a real improvement.

As someone said above, if only they actually covered severe outbreaks these days. Hopefully things will change now that they're going to be sold.

Hmm, that's odd. That's exactly what it was like last week when it was only half HD. I have Dish Network btw. Sounds like for whatever reason DirectTV is still only broadcasting TWC in half HD. I have no idea why that'd be though.

Well both on Dish and Direct tv for some reason it is not full screen right now. I guess that they are still trying to work on the new studio cause you will notice that they are back in the old studio

So they're broadcasting in hD (half-D)? Or would it be HD/2?

It's in full HD now

Ahh that'd explain it. I never checked it today. Last night it was all in HD. I guess that's fairly understandable.

CNN is the same way. A few things are in HD, but a lot of the stuff is still non-HD.
