General Weather Chat / Re: Winter Predictions

My area has not had a real snow for over 5 years! Conditions have to be just right for it. I think we will see a harsher winter than normal. I hope that means a lot of snow for my area

weather.com goes out quite a bit. Its just an update or upgrade. No need to panic

Weird, because theres 11 backup servers.

Reallly?  Wow thats just sad then. I can think of several instances in the past few months where the site has been down for more than 20min.

Oops! Sorry wasn't paying attention.  It is quite amazing how the market is seeing these huge changes in just hours 

Hence the past tense.

Anyone who wants to can create something. We'll let the membership vote on what they like the best.

I think somewhere around Oct 17 sounds like a good date to me

I'm willing to put up a theme for any occasion, if someone creates the graphics. I don't do that stuff. 

I think something like this would be fun to do. Sorta like the Google logo themes.
