Dang TWC. I set up my tuner to record 9:06-9:11 (five minutes), and they run the local forecast late (at 9:09), meaning, the last seven seconds of my LF got cut off. Oh well. It should be recording on tape at home (meaning I'll have it online this weekend).

I can't participate.  My DVR PC just decided to go BSOD on me.... 

Do you have a VCR handy? If so, tape it!

Yay. This might be interesting. At 9:00 a Local Snowfall Report crawl popped up on my IS!

I'm New here Can I try this?

Sure! As long as you have some way of recording the local forecast and getting it online.

I dont expect Erin to be retired since it was a TS

2001's Tropical Storm Allison was retired. Allison devastated the Houston area with flooding rains for nearly a week.

What about the current LF going on right now?

That is the LF I was referring to.

The commercial audio is fine to me, but the local forecast music seems a bit soft, especially compared to the IS narration.

I'm desperate for a new computer. I've been looking for one for weeks. $180?

This isn't a "new" computer.

Never been to one, let alone even seen one before. Are they a regional chain?

Snow is fine but i can't count how many times i have slipped and fell in ice

How exactly do you fall IN ice?

I guess you could be on a frozen pond or lake, but that would be more falling through ice.

Just wondering, Gary, couldn't you hook a VCR up to your cable box via a composite or s-video cable and tape TWC tonight?

Yes, but then what would I do with the tape? Can you tell me how to get what I tape from the tape to the PC?

Hook up your VCR to your TV tuner, and play back the tape and hit record on your recording software.

I have no clue what I'm missing here. It seems very straight forward.
