I saw this picture on an article on weather.com called "Meteorological images of 2011" It shows a picture of Jeff Morrow during the April 27, 2011 Super Outbreak, with a Tornado Watch scroll from the XL.

Have any of you watched 2011: Weather by the Billions? I'm curious to know how the background effects are being done when Jim is talking solo or conducting interviews. Is he standing in front of the 3-D chroma key the entire time? And what about the chairs for the interviews? Are those on top of the 3-D chroma key?

Also, it's kind of funny to see how short Jim is compared to the other meteorologists. Now I don't feel so bad about my height...

Yes, I think Jim is 5'4". I'm 13.5 inches than him.

"Green Onions" by Booker T & the MG's

"Green Onions" entered the Billboard Hot 100 the week ending August 11, 1962 and peaked at No. 3 the week ending September 29, 1962. The single also made it to No. 1 on the soul singles chart, for four non consecutive weeks: an unusual occurrence in that, on the soul singles chart, "Green Onions" fell in and out of top spot, three times.[6] On the UK Singles Chart it first appeared December 15, 1979 at #74, it then hit its highest position on January 26, 1980 at #7, it then left the charts on March 1, 1980 at #51, and ended up staying on the charts for a total of 12 weeks.

Local Forecast / Hit Songs on LOT8's Playlists

« on: December 29, 2011, 11:13:59 AM »

This is a topic to list different LOT8's tunes that were once hit songs in the mainstream music world.

I'll start...

Papa Was A Rollin' Stone - The Temptations became a #1 song in the US for one week (Nov. 26-Dec. 2, 1972), and was the #100 song of 1973 in the US as well.
