Title: Videos of 2 Simultaneous local forecasts from 2 different locations
Post by: Lightning on October 18, 2010, 06:38:05 PM
Back on August 30th, 1987 during TWC's first ever special, "Eye of the Storm", 2 different local forecasts aired near the end of that program. I have footage of both from Birmingham, Alabama and Layne has footage of both from Columbus, Mississippi. I thought it would be neat to look at. Enjoy!

First local forecast 5:38 PM 8/30/87

Wow, that brings me back.  Once upon a time I had every single WeatherStar III flavor committed to memory.  And this was actually a bigger feat then, since there was no "local on the 8's" back then... the local forecast came on at different times depending on the time of day.  :)

Well, thank you. I am glad you like them. :)
