Took me a while to figure out how to work this out..  :wacko: but i managed to integrate a way for people that dont have Interstate fonts on their PC to see interstate on my CC page now! :happy: http://zach.dyndns-work.com:53205/current_conditions/

Now the weather info doesn't show at all on my computer. It used to show, but it wouldn't be in Interstate, since I didn't have that font.

I'm on Chrome and can't see it either. I'm running Mac, if that makes a difference.

I'll try it on Windows. I'll also add that I could see the text briefly before the template loaded, but the template covered it. The map is working fine.


EDIT: It's working on Windows. :blink:

From July 3-10, I will not be online as I enjoy a vacation in NC with my family.  We'll be in NC for the 4th and later exploring the Outer Banks.  This trip also marks my completion of one year with the NWS, which is on July 6.  If you need me when I return, please send a PM.  Take care! B)

Reminds me of the theme Louisville's Fox Station (I was actually there earlier tonight) uses for their 6:30 Newscast, They use "Lighthouse" by 360 for everything else.

If you want to see what WeatherNation looks like....check it out. 

http://www.filmon.com/#WeatherNation


It's a service that lets you watch TV online, and they happen to carry WeatherNation. I don't care for their OCMs...

Watched a little of it. It feels like my local weather man trying to cover the whole country. Lackluster graphics and material.


Which I suspected would be the case. Few organizations (especially new upstart ones) have the sheer resources that a channel like TWC (let alone NBC) has.
