UPDATE, 9 a.m.: Fox44 WEVV was also all-HD before WEHT and WTVW; the station was all-HD (via W47EE-D, channel 47.1) from its launch on July 1, 2011.
PREVIOUSLY: Back in August, WEHT Local and Local 7 WTVW began airing news in high definition. Now, nearly three months later, the stations have become the latest in the market to transition to all-HD operation.

What does this mean, exactly? Simply put, it's this: Everything that's available to the stations in HD - from commercials to syndicated shows like Family Feud, etc. - now makes its way to you in the clearer and crisper format.
The stations are broadcasting using the 720p format, the same as ABC uses for its network feed.
WEHT and WTVW aren't the first stations in Evansville to make this move; the first (and until this week, only) station to be all-HD 24/7 was CBS44 WEVV, which switched over nearly four years ago.
