Another Video of the New Graphic from The Weather Channel
And
Weather Channel - Tru Vu - Graphics
They use both. You can tell the differences in the software, Viz has more glassy, and light flashy effects on it. They really have only been using Viz for: Weekly Planner, Road Weather, Interstate Forecast, and sometimes the 60 Second forecast.I never realized they even used products from WSI.. but rather Vizrt..What are you talking about? Titan is not discontinued... in fact if you saw the monitor behind Cantore, that was Titan...WSI is trying to get back to windows operating systems. They can still use Titan(If they already have it, which twc does), just WSI may not be selling the product anymore, it has been removed from their website.* Zach is lost
What are you talking about? Titan is not discontinued... in fact if you saw the monitor behind Cantore, that was Titan...WSI is trying to get back to windows operating systems. They can still use Titan(If they already have it, which twc does), just WSI may not be selling the product anymore, it has been removed from their website. Tru Vu Storm is what replaced the Titan HD Radar. Tru Vu Max replaced the Show Player, graphics producer, and show fx from the Titan graphics system.
Weather Center has new graphics. They upgraded their old Titan HD Radar.TWC previously had Tru Vu Titan HD from WSI. A few weeks ago they discontinued Titan, and Released Tru Vu Max(for graphics) and Tru Vu Storm(for radar). My local tv network has had it for a few weeks now, its beautiful system. It has a lot better looking graphics than Titan. It has no rendering, so the program speeds up the process of making graphics.
The graphics are much better now. I wonder if they upgraded from other shows.
I believe there was still some uncertainty yesterday as to how severe the tornadoes would be in the areas yesterday, which is why they held the tornado probability at 15%. Today, the atmospheric conditions are prime for dangerous tornades, possibly worse than yesterday, and their certainty is much higher. Hence, the High Risk and the PDS tornado watch.High Risk of tornadoes EF2 and greater.
It also may be to catch the attention of people. They wouldn't put one out without good reasoning.I am under a PDS Tornado Watch, its really windy and they are shifting around a lot. People around here think tornadoes don't kill, so they are less likely to take cover or pay attention for that matter. I'm concerned there will be injuries and fatalities because of this. Watch thewxnetwork stream on livestream.com I'm streaming live video outside of my house.
I don't quite understand the SPC's reasoning for a High Risk, if anything they should have issued a PDS Tornado Watch for AL and MS yesterday. There were quite a few long lived large tornadoes. I think they may be doing this as precautionary because of what happened yesterday.
For the past few days we were forecast to get thunderstorms every night, with possibilities as high as 40%. Not only did we not get thunderstorms, but we barely even got any raindrops at all to speak of.Don't get your hopes up when its 40%. Usually takes >60% To get them.
The last thunder we had here was a couple of freak episodes of thundersnow in the middle of winter. But I want a real, good ol'-fashioned thunderstorm. Not anything that's going to destroy houses or kill people, but just strong enough to keep me entertained for a while.
A line of severe storms just moved through my area. We had to go to the basement, due to a tornado warning that included my immediate area and based on damage reports mainly due to straight line winds. I saw the shelf cloud as the storm approached. Lots of lightning and some wind. On our way down to the basement, my mother hurt her foot by slipping and falling on the next to last step.Must have been terrifying, hope she is alright.
