Severe Weather / Re: Severe Weather Season 2013

« on: May 16, 2013, 02:19:49 PM »

It looks like the quiet spring we've experienced thus far is coming to an end, following a tornado outbreak in North Texas yesterday.  The NWS in Fort Worth is saying at least 10 tornadoes were confirmed from the outbreak. 

The tornado in Granbury, TX has been given a preliminary rating of EF4.  I am still waiting to see, and curious, what the rating on that mile-wide tornado in Cleburne will be. 

I am wishing for safety for any of you in the path of storms over the coming days and recovery for anyone who has been affected by these deadly tornadoes.

It's been confirmed to be an Ef4 with 6 fatalities confirmed and 7 people still missing. Yesterday now seems to be the start of this year's tornado season, and it looks like we might get another outbreak next weekend. Most of the damage was south of Dallas and mainly south of Fort Worth, though I saw one supercell was headed right for downtown Dallas. Coppell has seen some major damage (wind) according to my relatives who live relatively close to where the tornado struck.

I really hope they don't get rid of full screen locals, LOT8s is a staple to TWC. I just wish they restored them back to their 2 minute lengths, so viewers get see their complete forecasts again. I'm also positive they yanked the station ID at every :57 of the hour so they can slip in a commercial during that time.

I am planning to take calc 2 in the summer at my local community college. Unfortunately, it's a 2 hour commute by bus so I would have to wake up at 6:30 4 mornings a week for it.

I can't find the "Name That Tune" page (I love the music on there). I also identified two of the unknown songs on your page months back, hope you got my message

Ooh! I need to add that page to "other pages." Thanks for the reminder. Yes, I got your message (and thought I replied). Thanks! The new information will be reflected on the "previous unknowns" page soon.

No problem, I like what I'm seeing so far

After several months of planning and trying different things offline, I think I found a setup that works well. But before I spend several weeks completing the work, I want to make sure I'm on the right track. So I uploaded what I have so far and would like to get your thoughts. The main thing I'm concerned about is the navigation and people being able to find what they're looking for. So don't worry about broken links or missing content at this point. Thanks!
