"Rainy Days" by Trammell Starks, via one of the CDs I purchased from him a few months ago.

I'll be saying goodbye to the Weatherscan unit here in Spokane pretty soon, as I am moving to the coast of southern Washington. The Charter headend in nearby Astoria, OR does not have a Weatherscan unit, which means I won't be able to listen to the 6 Trammell songs that currently play on the channel anymore. Very sad for me

Only one more day to go before my girlfriend and I move to the Washington coast imp! 

My folks will travel from Pullman, WA to help us pack up a truck we're renting for the move imp. Then they'll take the truck back to their house for one night, then drive to the Tri-Cities and spend another night at my sister's house there imp. On Sunday, my brother-in-law will be helping us by driving the truck to Long Beach with my folks imp.

Meanwhile, we'll be remaining in Spokane and clean up the duplex we're about to vacate imp. Then on Saturday, we'll drive to our new triplex in LB and we'll spend the night there imp. My folks will bring us an air mattress to sleep on so we don't have to sleep on the floor at our new place imp. Then on Sunday, all five of us will meet again at the new place and we'll unload the truck from there imp.

This may sound difficult to do, but it's gonna be a big transition for the both of us imp

Now, it just says Past 5 Minutes.

Yeah, according to weather.com the radar is back up and running (it jumped frames from 5:30PM PT to 6:10PM PT.) Perfect timing because I pressed record on my DVD recorder nearly ten minutes ago when the radar box was missing on Weatherscan

As of 9:10PM ET the Doppler radar seems to be experiencing an outage (the radar box is absent on my Weatherscan.)

Sorry for my absence folks. When I arrived back from Europe my grandmother became critically ill. She passed away yesterday and I have been getting her estate in order. She lived to be 98 which is amazing but I wish her last few days had not been as painful and unpleasant as they were. While her body was quite active she was unconscious for much of the time so I hope the discomfort was minimal. This makes me the last remaining Cornick which is a bit of a bummer to think about.

So sorry to hear about that Martin. Best of luck to you

I did not update my profile to my new location (a little early but I figured what the heck?)

I heard "Frankenstein" by Edgar Winter play while I was having lunch with an old friend at local restaurant called The Onion.

Who would want to get up at 4 in the morning (ET) to watch E/I programming from TWC anyway? 

It has to be done per FCC requirements.

I realize that, but why at 4AM?

According to DirecTV, PM Edition still exists

IIRC, PE also exists on the TV guide for Dish as well.

Spokane and areas to the east of us are now under a severe thunderstorm watch imp. It's rare we see that around here imp. Very exciting imp! 

As of 6PM PDT all of eastern Washington has been taken off the severe thunderstorm watch box imp. However, my county and counties surrounding are under a flash flood watch until tomorrow morning imp. We seem to be not out of the woods yet imp.

Unfortunately, no warnings of any kind were issued for my county imp    but I was able to catch clips of a yellow severe thunderstorm watch scroll, a flash flood watch scroll, and a clip of the IntelliSTAR with a severe t-storm watch tab, all of which are very rare here imp. I'll post them later imp
