The graphics look amazing. It's nice to see a radar going on during the whole LF. That's a huge plus. With or without narration, it'll still look great.

Everything Else TWC / Re: Redesigned website coming soon!

« on: July 15, 2010, 01:01:26 PM »

Well, I'm liking the new weather.com. The best part is that you can add three default locations on your homepage so you don't have to search for them by zip code!

What got me was the countdown when you first visit the site. That fooled me.

My first reaction: Oh, look the old weather.com. Didn't they redesigned it-- oh.. 5..4...3...2...1... *POOF* Oh, there you are.

Also, I heard if you retweet or repost this:

@wxchannel: REDESIGNED weather.com Each RT @wxchannel gives $5 to United Way Gulf Recovery! http://tinyurl.com/2cwol8v #wxRedesign

TWC will donate $5 to United Way for Gulf Recovery.

I find today interesting. Maria LaRosa is on Weather Center for the first time (correct me if I'm wrong). And I just got a notification from Nicole Mitchell that Eric Fisher will make his full-show debut on WCWC tonight.

Remember when Jesse and some of you were talking about job searching last month? Remember when I said I applied at McDonalds, even though I hated that place? I just got a call from them. And I have a job interview tomorrow @ 1. It's the one right across the street!!!! 

Speaking of wisdom teeth, I'm getting all three of mine pulled out next week on the 21st.

I'm leaving for Los Angeles that day to see my uncle..

You're going to LA? Have a great time! It's an amazing place!

* Anistorm bumps this thread with her poking stick

So I'm hearing all around the news that BP has a new cap and it's finally sticking in the leaking well. Well finally we're seeing some results here. I hope this ends the leaking thats making the spill worse.

I'm new to TWC Today and just wanted to say hello to you all. I'm a weather fanatic and I'm currently going to High School in SC and enjoying the summer and all of its weather! 

Hello there! Your summer weather is highly different than my summer weather. It's hot as heck! Welcome to the forums! I hope you enjoy it here!

Probably won't get one today... just woke up with a pretty bad stomach illness. I'm trying to wonder what the heck did I eat yesterday...

Thanks Martin. $5 Euro... that's just as expensive! Remind me to find a hotel with free internet that's not wifi-ish next time I visited Ensenada (last time, in October, the hotel I stayed had free internet, but I was lucky enough to bring an Ethernet cord to connect to the modem provided).

I am so totally getting some slurpeez tomorrow, I'm probably gonna walk to my nearby 7-Eleven store tomorrow morning before the heat comes to me. I don't want to come home with my melted slurpee!

I was worried that this would happen. Bill was great. He was the only OCM iirc that was there since TWC made it's debut. I will certainly miss him.

I pretty much listen to almost anything except heavy metal, screamo, rap, tween music, and a little bit of country. If I hear a Miley Cyrus or a Justin Bieber song, I'll shoot the stereo.

Oh, and don't be hatin on Lady Gaga or Ke$ha. I MUST have the volume up to 100 every time one of their songs play on the radio.

I am so glad to be back home. I've been away for a while. I've been in and out of the city all week.

The Family Reunion was great. Everything was awesome as planned. I'm now working on a movie with all of clips I caught. I have to make... uhh... 30-40 copies.

Also I spent the week at Ensenada. The hotel I stayed at *promised* wifi, but I was charged $2 an hour to use it at the Pool Lounge.  So, which was why my lack of activity here kinda drifted on. But.... I'm pretty happy to be back.

I had plans to be away again tomorrow, but I'm very homesick. I miss my kitties and my doggy, and most of all my friends and family. I guess when the 5.4 earthquake hit on Wednesday, I started to worry about everyone in EC and my cellphone lacked service when I was at the beach.

I really hope everyone is well this week, and hope everyone had a great holiday weekend last week. Mine's been a blast!
