Yeah, I was surprised when Melbourne’s arvo bulletin aired after Tipping Point.

Despite what TV Tonight said, local 4pm news will continue through summer. They will only be rested over that Christmas/NY period.

Well that’s a shame. Was looking forward to a national edition.

This began last week but there is now a standing presentation for the opener of the Afternoon News in Melbourne.

Looks great! Would love to see more of this in the 6PM bulletin too.

Are those slightly different graphics with the 9NEWS ALERT scroll at the bottom new? With the yellow coloured bar at the side of the graphic?
Just screened in Sydney on 4pm news due to bushfire emergency alerts

Yep, That’s new.
Nine News really needs a graphics refresh.
These ones look horrible, especially with the massive “Breaking News” text.

I’m sure those graphics showed a while back on Queensland’s news.
I think these were used during the bushfire coverage a few weeks ago.
Probably next year to launch with the North Sydney move.

Sydney somehow managed to get ALL of the overnight minimums wrong by a considerable margin tonight.
I mean, how do these kinds of errors get to air?

Brisbane tonight - the weather is from outside a Christmas lights display from a finalist in the River 949 Christmas lights competition.

With the presenter in the field, I dare say there is no one double checking the automated data entry.

I would have thought they’d be overlaid as per normal back at TCN - shouldn’t matter where Amber is?
Because of automation, no one manually enters the data. It’s usually up to the weather presenter to check the temps are accurate…

Haha! There’s usually a bit of delay with LED walls (appears to be in this case too with the different hand and mouth positions), which means that Tracy could’ve done a Mexican wave with herself (I’ve done that at work before).
