I was watching a movie called "Where The Heart Is" with my girlfriend earlier this evening, and during one scene there was a tornado that destroyed a town. At one point, there was even a TV that was tuned to The Weather Channel with a WeatherSTAR XL-generated tornado warning scroll. The movie is from 2000, which means that the IntelliSTAR hasn't been invented yet back then

Here's a snapshot of the TWC scene from the movie:



Sorry about the pic quality as I took it with my camera.

Looks neat! Can you post a map for southwestern Washington state if it's possible?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but does a 24/7 LDL mean that the full-screen LOT8s will be eliminated?

TWC Fan Art / Re: TWCJim's Artwork

I decided to put my CD album artwork skills to the test, and made the following artwork for my own personal TWC music mix:








The background photograph for the front cover was taken next to the Cape Disappointment Lighthouse in Washington state, while the photo for the disc tray back cover was taken at Blue Lake in north central Washington state about a year or so ago.

The songs I listed on the back cover are my favorite LOT8s songs. If you wish to make a copy of this mix, I suggest that you go find all of the songs listed on the back cover for yourselves anywhere you can find them, whether it's from a CD or from the internet legally. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy my artwork 

EDIT: The artwork has been updated to include a 19th track I found recently, "Walk, Don't Run" by The Ventures.

I had a feeling this would happen eventually-- as of this morning all of the LFs during DP are now 60-seconds in length, joining WCL and all of the weekday morning shows

All signs are pointing toward near or at 70º for tomorrow's high    We might even tie or break the record high of 68º set at Astoria Regional Airport 26 years ago

Here is my rough draft of the now-discontinued TWC station ID segment. The background was taken by myself from atop the Astoria Column a few months ago. What do you guys think?
