General Weather Chat / Re: Training Thunderstorms?

Training thunderstorms are when several thunderstorms that have formed on a single line (and you can many storms in that line that line up like train cars, hence the name "training" thunderstorms) , and each hit the same area one after another (which can result in flooding).

(I logged out and I could still see that Victor was warned) Though, they can only see whether or not that person is warned, not why that person was warned.

Billy got the same error earlier after he received a PM from Victor. Now he can't even access the board at all, all he see's is "You have 1 messages unread" and then the database error.

Somebody goofed when making the A&B teasers tonight. The headline about Tropical Storm Kyle read "Tropical Storm Ike".

« on: September 23, 2008, 05:30:01 PM »Actually, I don't think it's that bad. It's beyond what I had expected. Though, they could make the radar bigger.I actually think it looks better than the actual IntelliStar.

It got set to Taiwan by mistake (I'm assuming).

« on: September 21, 2008, 08:30:21 PM »Personally, I can't stand Mac OS X's font smoothing. ClearType is much easier on the eyes, IMO.I was that way at first (I was also the same way with ClearType when XP came out, actually), but as I dealt with Macs more and more, I got used to it.

« on: September 21, 2008, 06:32:35 PM »How come when I view forums on my PC, the text has rough edges and is a bit more blurry, whereas on my Mac the text has much smoother edges making it easier to read? I use Firefox 3 in both my Mac and PC.Mac OS X has completely different font rendering then Windows does. However, enabling ClearType on Windows will make a big difference in font smoothing quality (but it's still way different then OS X's).
