I don't know why they are using Las Vegas as the CC site though. There's an ASOS in Bullhead City they can use. It isn't even in its local obs pages, when this site is in the XL's serving area.

OCMs & Personalities / Dave & Hillary Moment

« on: August 22, 2008, 12:46:33 AM »

Who here recorded the Dave and Hillary moment when Hillary mentioned the magic number being 32 (about there being 32 named storms), but Dave corrected her and said that there were 23 named storms? Felipe had this uploaded onto YouTube but its not there anymore, and I can't remember who originally recorded it. If you did, can you post it here?

I'm willing to barter. I'll send an autographed picture of myself in exchange for the STAR. Deal?

I wish I has a STAR so I could take part in this offer!!

Me too... though I could always steal the one from my Comcast headend. It's only about two miles away.

IIRC, the cities displayed on the Getaway Forecast actually PAY to be on there.

That, and also b/c the Getaway is based on DMAs, and A.C. is part of the Phila. DMA.

Avalon looks fine to me. They just need to put the city name on top of the icon.

My IntelliStar has the weirdest configuration.

What's weird about it? I don't see anything wrong with it.

She was okay. Anita left earlier this year and was replaced with Ali Gorman. My grandmother knows Ali's mom.

Yeah, yesterday might of been a bit chilly at the shore and to go to the beach, but was a great day for outdoor activity.

Today is a tad more humid than it was yesterday as dew points have risen from the low 40's to mid 50's. Still comfortable though.

He's not a meteorologist, just a weathercaster. Dave's the only one who doesn't have the degree to be considered a meteorologist.

My favorite is David Murphy. He's the only one who talks weather professionally, IMO.

Still dropping a bit here, some as low as $3.15-$3.19 now. Won't be surprised if it rises again though.

Has anybody here wanted to go to the WPVI-TV studio tour in Philly?

I always wanted to go to Philly to visit the WPVI-TV studios

I like their current studio, especially that glass city structure and backdrops.

It aired back in January and February 2003. If anyone has a clip of it, please share it, as I might remember this song (I remember quite a few other songs from this timeframe).

Is there a reason why it rose? Hopefully it's temporary.
