  1. woke up to a dusting, still snowing
  2. You make it impossible to avoid banter
  3. Ha! It really was awesome. I made quite a few that summer, even one for a meteor shower that was happening. Also, my first or second night (I was there for both her newscasts) there was some bad severe weather, tornado warnings. It was crazy to watch what happens behind what we see on tv. Little alarms going off, a printer printing out warning text, trying to do radar and polygons and all that. I sat in the corner out of the way while her and Barry(?) were juggling it all. Seriously best summer gig ever
  4. I enjoy this mentality very much.
  5. She was a blast to work with. Taught me a lot of weather business stuff, we would hang out or go grab dinner somewhere in DC together between newscasts. That internship is actually what got me into mapping. I couldn’t hack the math for meteorology or the green screen for TV, but she taught me their graphic programs and I’d make fun weather graphics for her weather hits. You know those scenario maps that some Mets show? Well I interned there summer 2005 and was a busy hurricane season, I’d make those scenario type maps showing where a hurricane would go if the H was here vs somewhere else and she’d use them. It was awesome. Immediately changed my focus to cartography/GIS that fall when I went back to school lol
  6. You’re more than welcome to go enjoy this threat somewhere else.
  7. Gwen is an absolute sweetheart! (Cough @stormtracker ). I met her when I interned with Sue Palka for a summer (was so much fun!)

  9. i'm not sure such record exists. but, if it doesnt work out, i fully expect to be shunned by you all.
  10. Limited banter in between model runs is okay.
  11. hit the plus sign next the Quote Edit Options area. It will pop up as a Multi-quote in your bottom right corner of the screen. Then go into banter thread, and click the box to write text for a post and the quoted one will be there
  12. tell us again how you think Richmond will be disappointed.
  13. think you meant did the Euro just happen to also show what the Icon showed.
  14. Banter friend, banter. Until the storm happens and we see what we get, no model is currently right or wrong.
  15. unpinning this thread for now. move your discussions to the new one please
  16. Alright alright alright -- lets bring home a 'Superbowl' win for our backyards and add some snow to our season totals. Don't bitch, whine or complain If you see your posts disappearing, blame H20 Enjoy weenies!
