Glad you're all smart enough to do such things. I wouldn't know how to do that like I don't know the answer to x times x devided by y without numbers.

Right, but the video I posted is an actual XL.

There may be an actual XL in the video but the "graphically enhanced" part of it is not a real XL unit. Chazz gave him the project code, if I am not mistaken.

It's an actual XL using custom graphics...

Are you talking about the "graphically updated XL?"
If so, I don't think that statement is correct.

I'm not confused on what I should spend my $700 on, a Mac, an iPhone, a condenser mic and saving the rest, or a new weather station (maybe with a camera  )

High wind is causing problems for Alabama Power to restore power to those affected by the storms today...

We're doing what we can where we can. High winds in some places have made it unsafe to put our buckets in the air.

Pardon me if this has been answered countless times, but does anybody know why TWC's music is still a bit iffy? As for me, I haven't heard songs like "Supernova" since the playlist issue after Irene, and I just heard a morning song that I'm not too particularly fond of at 6:28 CT. Moreover, I'm just wondering if this will be fixed before/if a Sept. playlist gets released.

The playlist issues must still be occurring

Is anyone else's TWC feed of audio and video out of sync right now?

Yeah:
My Movie

I dont think thats possible in what Trevor was describing, because in your video the audio of the output is out of sync (including the STAR audio).. because what he meant was just the national audio, in which STAR audio wouldnt be affected 

I think my problem was related to Windows Media Center. Every time I run WMC it causes my computer to have a virtual stroke. It is really starting to tick me off, and I have no alternative other than the Pinnacle software that came with the tuner, which causes the computer to have a heart attack, a stroke, and then a clot (in such a case, the clot would come before the stroke or heart attack).

Austin and Trevor, make sure you indicate to the NWS that you are trained spotters and have your parents with you on the phone if it helps.  Furthermore, take some pictures to show proof of evidence, and ask if there's any way you can send them to the office via email or some other way.  I have to handle verification calls like these often, so showing as much credibility and evidence as possible really helps people like me on the other end.

Flood watches and warnings are up along a big part of the eastern United States today.  Stay safe from the flooding, everyone!  Feel free to post any reports you witness in this thread, too.

I have a video of a rapidly rotating funnel cloud that I called in (I did state my ID No. and such) and they took no action but to just say, "awesome, please do take some pictures of it," then proceeded to thank me for the report and hung up. I never sent them the video because I did not feel I needed to after the event, and at the time I had no internet access. Perhaps I am doing something wrong?

Coffee County, AL just had a tornado warning, went live. While live, I peered out the window to see none other than a tornado on the ground. Who to call? NWS! Guess who didn't believe me?
