General Discussion / Re: What is the last thing you bought?

I have a Logitech C130 HD Webcam...it works great!

I last bought a Fire Lite MS-5UD Fire Alarm Control Panel replacement board for $150 (really good deal) off of eBay.

For those who don't know, one of my other interests is fire alarms, and I have a fire alarm system that I can control upstairs in my house.

I totally forgot about this! I remember watching this live! Meteorologists Dave Brown and Tim Van Horn were covering some tornadic storms from the same system that hit Alabama on 4/27, and Dave's phone accidentally starts playing "Take on Me" on the air! Classic! It's bad quality, but I'm glad that someone uploaded it nonetheless.

Memphis weather coverage

Also, note the cool camera angle that they use at 0:14 seconds in. They use it very often during severe weather, and I think it's a really awesome angle!

BTW, it's WMC-TV Action News 5 in Memphis.

I figured you would be glad to see RF back on the LF, sorry

Wow, it's great to have some RF back on the LF, after what seems like forever.

Zach sure will be happy.

Yup. There's a known issue with the SPC map. It's already been corrected. Somebody probably pressed the wrong button.

Someone jokingly commented on that photo on Facebook: "It must have been bring your kid to work day at the SPC!"

Thank you! Yeah, I noticed that almost right after I hit the "Post" button. It'll be corrected next time.

I saw somewhere that TWC was going to be featuring Trammell Starks' new album, but that was just a rumor. I'm not saying that the song is by Trammell, just speculating at this point.

TWC Fan Art / Trevor's New Artwork

« on: June 11, 2012, 02:58:02 PM »

Some of you may have seen my old artwork thread, but I've decided to create a new one. The reason being because the artwork in the old thread was from 1-2 years ago, and it wasn't the best. I've started taking time on my emulations, so I created another thread.

With that being said, here is a WeatherStar XL Weather Bulletins screen that I have been working on in the past hour. This is the first time that I haven't used previously made graphics, so everything (minus the TWC logo) was made from scratch by me. I'm especially happy about how the warning crawl turned out.

This is all current, up-to-date information as of the time seen on the emulation.

I mean, I guess it kind of makes sense, because NBC owns TWC, but couldn't they at least be original and think of some new icons?

We need lots more vocal songs!

Okay, so maybe I just wanted to use that icon and be sarcastic...but either way, I always liked Ryan Farish on the LF.

Wow, I guess everyone hears different things about that song. I think that the beginning of Hellecaster's Theme sounds like a sped up version of the beginning of Layla...

I've always been served by Memphis, TN and the KNQA radar.

Just curious, does anyone know the smallest and largest WFOs, respectively?
