The Front Porch

Sorry for double post!



I just have to post this because this was just crazy. I just fooled my whole family because I said that a storm would just past to the west of here, and they believed it! So they just had desert outside and all of a sudden it starts down pouring on them! Hahahahaha. Sucks to be them, I'm sitting inside. 

Well that's not very nice to do. If it taught them a lesson with the above t-storm warning, maybe. Just don't let them get hurt or anything.

Yeah Craig, I would have to agree with Donovan.. that wasn't very nice of you to do to your family. They could have gotten hurt had anything worse happened. If they don't understand the ability of a thunderstorm, then that's their own fault.

Just to clear things up, there was no lightning affiliated with this storm, it was simply a rain shower; and I had to get back at them for what they done to me all these years. Also, they were under a tent, which shielded them from most of the rain. It was alright, they laughed, it wasn't anything meant to be mean.

Don't you just hate it when your hard drive fails on you? Ack, without a computer for the weekend.

For those of you that use the WS4000 v3 emulator, I can officially report that observations are working again!

I don't follow...how is this possible?

Are they not working for you? they work just fine for me

It is, but what I mean is how does it suddenly start working out of the clear blue after 7months of being down?

It was an issue on the ADDS' end and is kinda hard to explain on why, but I do know what caused the observations to go down originally.

I just noticed that the current weather information under all of our profiles aren't working.

That's a problem on HAMweather's end, not ours. It's happening on my HAMweather page as well.

[TWCmatthew]

Oh, Okay. Well, hopefully HAMweather will have that fixed soon.


Anyway, inverted V/microburst anyone?

Yeah, they've been broken for quite a few days now.  I noticed they went out as soon as NWS changed to their new website design, so I think that might have something to do with it.   If this is a problem on HAMweather's end, then I guess there's nothing we can do about it.  To be honest, I personally have no idea how to access the information, but I may contact Patrick or Martin just to double-check that there's not a link problem on the forums.

I'm not stopping you from double-checking with both, but I can assure you that it's a problem on their end and not ours.  And I looked on the HAMweather site a few days back and it seems that HAMweather3 (the software used to power the profile conditions) is no longer supported either, so I have no idea if it's gonna be fixed or not.

It's also quite a coincidence that the ADDS fixes their problem, but then HAMweather becomes broken at the same time!

If it remains offline much longer I will look into a solution on our end

Well, tomorrow is a very important part of my flight course, because if I pass this flight examination tomorrow, I will likely have my Private Pilot's license in my hand in about a week or so.  Just trying not to let my nerves get to me.
