So, did Weather Classroom end up airing at 4AM like it said in the schedule, or was it still the WWCH episodes?

I'm chewing my first piece of gum in over two years.

I can certainly spell or say summer this upcoming weekend.  Temperatures will be climbing into the low 80s for me on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday!

A couple of our local mets are forecasting the same, if we do, it'll even earlier than it was last year. Time to break out the shades!

We'll be hitting 80° as well.

lol, me too!

TWC Today News / Re: TWCT/TWCC Forums Merge set on schedule for April 4th

« on: March 29, 2010, 03:44:45 PM »

Martin, I noticed a couple things you may want to edit with the STAR team guidelines thread:

This forum is only for issues directly related to your STAR products, Local on the 8’s or Weatherscan. All other questions should be sent to weather.com or discussed in another TWC Classics forum.

When possible, make sure to include your local weather ID (in the ‘black bar’ on an IntelliStar, or usually displayed in the upper right hand corner of the screen before the :58 after Local on the 8s on the other Stars).

Also, I want to discuss a couple things with you about this merger through PM

Everything Else TWC / Re: New Graphics and Icons

« on: March 29, 2010, 03:16:24 PM »

I noticed this morning that on the HD feed, the icons are proportional, i.e. the suns are actually round.  There must be an incorrect setting for screen size on the STARs which creates the images at an off proportion, then squeezes the wider image back to 4:3, thus making the suns/moons/anything round look oblong.

That's an excellent point... I didn't think about that. I was wondering why the moon icons looking like discolored easter eggs. I just thought it was how the icons were designed.

I am pretty sure after Betty Davis said "bye" at the end of Weekend View, Kelly Cass said "holla."
 I never want to hear that out of her mouth again..haha

I can confirm that... though it sounds like it was Betty that said holla

That brings up another thing... I don't understand what "bots" are either and how they could possibly be setup. I keep hearing about them in the chat... and users mention that they've made them.

What is up with this whole "spiders" thing? Are they just some random programs that scope out the forums? I've noticed the "Twiceler" spider has been staring at my profile for the past ten minutes.

I have a clip of Your Voice which I'll upload soon. It's a beautiful calming song, IMO.
