Atakahashi showed up in 1986 as co-anchor after spending time as a mere correspondent and they changed the backdrop the more current type with all sorts of busy goings on there. The weather board with the curved ends was replaced by one with straight ones and the graphics they used to show rain looked like mould.
That was the revered "Eyewitness News" theme heard on ABC O and O's across the Fruited Plain in that era.

*From New York's number 1 TV newscast, this is "Eyewitness News," with Roger Grimsby... Bill Beutel... Sal Marciano with sports... Storm Field with weather, and the "Eyewitness News" team.*
I know that is Herb Luft & Brian MacGorman but am not 100% on the weather person- it looks like Margerite Corriveau but I thought she was gone by 1984. Think I have a similar 10 second clip somewhere on a VHS tape.
Brian McGorman, Herb Luft and Lu Hanessian I believe.

The music is easy to recognize. Cool Hand Luke. Paul Newman's best known movie.
