Since that announcement, Weather Plus has scaled back dramatically. On its cable channel there are no longer OCM segments, instead weather maps roll with music. Many NBC affiliates have removed the "Weather Plus" branding from their broadcasts. Additionally, Weather Plus weather-casters and meteorologists that remain are now referred as NBC or "The Weather Channel" Meteorologists. They continue to use the same maps as with weather plus, but now have the Weather Channel branding and topic bar. NBC Weather Plus is scheduled to be shut down by Monday, December 1, 2008. Some talents have not been seen on air since the OCM segments have been stopped. However, others like Bill Karins, Jeff Ranieri, Gary Archibald and Todd Santos have been seen on MSNBC and NBC.
