General Weather Chat / Re: Southeast Severe Weather

« on: March 26, 2009, 10:13:54 PM »

Thanks Patrick for starting this thread, here's the latest radar image from TWC including the watch outline boxes, Notice the very small Severe Thunderstorm Watch they issued for NE Texas for those two supercells. Also in Georgia the wedge has broken and temps soared from the mid 50's to the mid 60's in a matter of a few hours, there was even a peek of sunshine today, if conditions are like that tomorrow after sunrise, things will get real violent and nasty around here, the atmosphere is already getting and continuing to unstablize tonight since the wedge broke down from the warm front retreating north of us.

Was the new Weatherscan configuration a mistake? Mines is back to the way it was before the outage Saturday.

I saw the Travel segment for the first time today and I was surprised to see the places for the Destination Forecast had all been changed to Southeastern Universities? They used to be major US cities like New York, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles etc. Also on the regional forecast, Memphis,TN and Birmingham,AL were removed and replaced with Jackson,MS and Pensacola,FL.

We could be measuring rain in inches, with possible strong tornados not out of the question with the severe weather that's also possible from now to Saturday. Spring Fury is here in full force!

I loathe the Nutrisystem commercials. I know people that tried it and it's SO much more complicated than they say. I also don't like the Billy Mays commercials. He screams in your face practically.

I don't like those Billy Mays commercials either, SCREAMING AT ME IS NOT GOING TO MAKE ME BUY YOUR PRODUCTS! It'll make me ignore it instead.

WeatherStar4000 & XL Icons Tribute

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mTjP9kxDZk

This was originally going to be only an XL icon tribute, but given the video effects I used, I knew I wasn't going to have enough icons for the song I used so I got the idea to make a tribute for both the 4000 and XL icons. The 4000 icons tribute I had up before has been removed permantly.

I wish Weatherscan had a music upgrade by now! 

I do too, but I also miss the playlist they had during the early days of the Weatherscan IS.

The Ski forecast was added to my Weatherscan today, I don't think I have ever had that segment before.

This segment is still on here for now. I have these right now including the updates I noticed this morning are:

4 cities - Atlanta, Woodstock, Alpharetta, Marietta
Local Radar (update to cities and coverage area of radar)
Traffic
Travel
Golf (changes made by new cities added)
Airport
Ski & Snow
Health

I think the Garden segment should be back soon I guess. Dallas and Douglasville,Ga were replaced by Sandy Springs, Duluth and Cumming,Ga on the black scroll. Also Chattanooga Airport was added to the Current Airport conditions on the black scroll. I'll update this when and if I see more updates.

Billy mentioned that his Weatherscan recieved an update, The Atlanta Weatherscan recieved one as well. My original cities were Atlanta, Marietta, Douglasville and Dallas, now they are Atlanta, Woodstock, Alpharetta and Marietta which is more local than Douglasville and Dallas,Ga were. Also on the Local Radar segment, the radar was shifted north to include the new cities and removed Douglasville and Dallas from the maps, the radar map and the lower left hasn't changed. The new local radar looks similar to this one except it includes more cities to the north such as Rome,Ga:
