There is one of these at the Monroe Mall in Monroe, MI. The winds went up to almost 80 mph. It was really fun.
I heard there is something similar to this down in Toledo, Ohio, in which winds go past 80 mph, and even up to Cat 5 strength. (Though, for Cat 5 strength mode, you have to have special permission and a watcher.

BTW, big warm-up potential for next week.

Yeah, that is what I am hearing, too. It's about time. I just wish it would get warm and stay warm. That won't happen until late April or May, where I live. Remember, 18 years ago, what happened in March.

Right, the superstorm of 1993. And that year was in a La Nina pattern, just like 2011.

Nice job!

An idea: Next, you should make a screenshot of the new "squeezebar".

I really like that chime at the very beginning of the squeezebar. Glad to hear TWC still uses the 4-note chime.

Nice! 

That icon could have been used several times this winter with all of the thunder with wintry precipitation.
