Title: Bizarre WeatherSTAR 4000 error
Post by: twcclassics on August 11, 2011, 03:23:54 PM

My friend Mike sent this to me a few years ago. I can't believe it's taken me this long to post it. It's quite amazing, if you're a fan of WeatherSTAR 4000 errors. Check out the the extended forecast page...

Lesson learned: beware of rain falling so hard it's like a leaky faucet, and you'd sure as heck be careful of that intense sunshine there!

Some vectors were obivously not angled right.  :lol:
It had to have taken some programming to get that put together - now I can kind of understand why my light snow icon had half a black snowflake for a long time. :thinking:
