Title: New LDL weather warnings the same
Post by: ministorm on June 04, 2008, 03:06:25 PM

I live in Maryland and we got HUGE storms coming. But that's not why I'm sad. The LDL for severe weather hasn't changed. In fact it seems to have gone back in time. If I'm correct, The old way the IS would tell you about alerts is "BEEP BEEP BEEP 'A severe thunderstorm warning is in effect for our area' BEEP BEEP BEEP". The new way was that it just did 5 beeps. But it just did the old way with a narration for the LDL. So I'm sad to not see new graphics :( but am happy to see the old noises.  :twothumbs:

BTW a little off topic but what does it mean when I just see a crap load of 4 digit numbers in the warning?

First, as for the beeps, I live in Baltimore County and mine still does the beep and narration sequence.

The numbers are areas of latitude and longitude, IIRC.
