General Weather Chat / Re: NWS Pittsburgh among first to receive dual-polarization radar

Kind of shocked Sterling isn't getting dual-pol a lot sooner, but so it goes.  Can't wait to get it here.  Have been playing with a few of the upgraded sites in RadarScope and that is some darn fine data to have around...

Still no IS2 in Reston, though I'm pretty sure our being a Scientific Atlanta/Cisco market and Cox actually owning the lines up here has a lot to do with that.

Helvetica Neue Condensed is used in the ad crawl, the 36 hour forecast pages, and the temperatures on the regional maps.  The remainder of the fonts are various weights of Akzidenz Grotesk and, in the case of the v3 titlebars, Interstate.  All are commercial.  Akzidenz Grotesk is particularly expensive.
