Weatherlover's Artwork

Nice Job! I love the video backgrounds, could you tell me where you found them? 

It's the same weather backgrounds used on the current IntelliStar. It was apart of an IntelliStar goodies files Martin posted here a couple of years ago. That's where I got them from.

Where were they posted?

He deleted that thread a while back I believe.

The next update

-Daypart Forecast

Song - Paul Taylor - Push to Start
The audio for this was ripped from a recording of an intelliStar video I recorded today.

Still a work in progress. This is what I have so far...

I used Jackson, MS as my testing site. There will be a completed K DE Flavor later this evening or tomorrow.

WeatherSTAR XL version 1 Emulation with Mock XL LDL!

A completed K Flavor of the XL version one

Includes a LDL during the local forecast
Working Clock Ticker
Allen Jackson narration (CC screen only, I don't have the phrases for "Your Forecast" or "Your Extended Forecast")
Animated radar (courtesy of wbtv.com)
County borders, city markers, and interstate lines were made by me.
Animated XL icons made by Robert
All weather data was provided by The National Weather Service.

NOTE - THE XL LDL IS NOT COMPLETED, IT'S JUST A TEST RUN (No clock ticker was added, this will be added next time)

And last, but not least, the music featured in this local forecast emulation is by none other than the lovely and wonderfully talented Joyce Cooling called "China Basin" which was featured on the June 2000 playlist which is the reason I picked it since it played during the XL era.


This project was made in Adobe Premiere Pro 8.0 and edited in Windows Live Movie Maker (Windows 7)

Just something I threw together really fast, it's not all that good.

Weatherscan HD concept - I loosely based the design off of the IS2.

That looks pretty good! I would love to see Weatherscan look like that.

Severe Thunderstorm Watch #478

Severe Thunderstorm Watch #478

NOTICE - You might have to turn your volume down from the warning tone at the beginning.

FINALLY, Some Heat Relief!

What an amazing weather day yesterday! It started off very HOT and dry, but as we got closer to the peak of the afternoon heat, dewpoints and humidity gradually began to rise and in result, supercell thunderstorms began firing off to our WNW in Northern Alabama and Tennessee. Eventually, the supercells formed into a line of strong thunderstorms as they slowly moved ENE in West Georgia then shifting ESE towards the Atlanta area right after 7pm.

But the excitement didn't end there, much to my surprise, more thunderstorms began developing and training behind eachother in waves coming from the NW in Tennessee. There were four rounds of strong thunderstorms during the evening not calming down until after 1am. This caused a Flash Flood Warning to be issued in NE Atlanta for Crooked Creek and the North Fork of Peachtree Creek.

The Severe Thunderstorm Watch was also extended 3 additional hours to account for the redeveloping storms around the time of the original expiration date.

Notice the wide range in temperatures from the upper 60's in Gainesville and Athens to the upper 90's in Anniston, AL!

I know the fonts aren't correct for the City display, I didn't want to leave it blank.

IntelliSTAR v2 Emulation - Premiere Elements 8.0 Project
TOP STORY: The Sunshine State or The Smokey Oppressive Heat Killing State?

IntelliSTAR v2 Emulation - Premiere Elements 8.0 Project

This is based off of the second graphical version of the IntelliStar (my favorite version) which debuted in August 2005 (TWC's relaunch) and was upgraded once again graphically in October 2007.

Song - Doug Markley - The Wind In Her Hair
Beta Testing City - Jacksonville, FL (I chose Jacksonville because of the very interesting weather taking place there this morning and throughout the afternoon: SMOKEY CONDITIONS, also they are under a Dense Smoke Advisory o_O I never knew such a thing existed.

Local Forecast Flavor - DE (1 minute)

ALL WEATHER DATA WAS ACCURATE AS OF 9:28 AM (CURRENT CONDITIONS) AND 11:28AM (LOCAL FORECAST).

IntelliSTAR Emulation - June 23, 2011

LDL, Daily Planner and The Week Ahead is incomplete.

Song: Pieces of a Dream - RU Ready? (I chose this song since it was one I remember vividly from the summer of 2004, it instantly became one of my favorites to hear.  )

[toxictwister00]

As I have said before, I absolutely hate how the Weather Center Live Opener looks, so I decided to attempt making my own version. This is just a rough draft. The final draft will be in video form.
