My favorite meteorologist since the 7th grade (Kristina Abernathy) has been layed off!!!!!!
I can't believe it's Feb already. Jan sure has flown by.
People never skipped or went late to work or school the Monday following the Superbowl? Riiiiiight.Honestly, schools have a better chance of students (and faculty) showing up with a delay than they otherwise would. It has nothing to do with if we win or not - just about everyone around here will stay up to watch the whole game.
that never happened here in Massachusetts during the Patriots super bowl years
Superintendent Mark Roosevelt (Pittsburgh Public Schools) is no fan of delaying or canceling school even in bad weather, but he said there was no reason to ignore the Super Bowl's effect on school operations. Asked whether he feared student and staff absences, he said he hoped the delay would help mitigate any problem.
The district also opened two hours late on the day after the Steelers won Super Bowl XL three years ago.
Maybe the reason why these STARs still have the traffic incidents/traffic flow narration is because of the fact that the traffic overview map isn't available for those locations.That's exactly the reason. Locations with overview maps only get overview narration. Headends without the overview map get narration for the traffic flow and incident pages.well i thought the overview maps were pulled for maintenance, have some ISTARs gotten them back?They were pulled out of the majority of markets because the maps didn't have enough digital data, making them less accurate. They only remained in major markets - NYC, DC, LA, MSP, DFW, San Francisco/Oakland, Chicago, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Houston, Boston, Seattle, Tampa, Philadelphia, and a few others.
Some of the markets where the maps were removed include - San Antonio, Miami, Orlando, Raleigh/Durham, Charlotte, Nashville, Providence RI, Richmond VA, Hartford CT, Salt Lake City, Sacramento, Louisville, etc.
so basically we're not gettin them back? well that sucks. i liked the overview maps.
