Why are you guys posting ID's? :unsure:

He asked what they mean, not what your ID's are.

The Local Weather ID is used to identify the WeatherSTAR (gives you the local forecast) at your Cable Company. You can't look it up, it won't give you weather info or anything (my first impression when they deployed it back in 2004 or so).

The only thing it's useful for is reporting errors.

The Weather Channel showed several of the video clips this morning.

***Please note the incredible rarity of a tornado of this magnitude in the Metro area.***

At 7:45 PM, NWS Radar indicated STRONG ROTATION in a storm over Tower Lakes, moving NE at 34 MPH.

Tower Lakes is only about 10 miles north of me!

For once, Major action in my area! :blink: :thrilled: :twothumbs:

I wonder if it works. I've never seen 512 for that low. :blink:
