meatwad Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Hey guys, I can't believe this stretch of hot weather!....makes me ready for some Yep, it's been torridly hot this summer, and looks like we're going to have another potential heat wave this week as well, and could be as intense. The humidity this summer reminds me of 2005 and 1995. I noticed the lakes water temps are well above normal, so lets keep the warmth long lasting into September and October, so we can get some epic LES the November and December Since we got extreme heat this summer, lets get extreme snowfall and extreme cold this winter. I want to see -20+ this winter, and record setting snowstorms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoraopolisWx Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I saw this morning a tutorial about the new NWS radar equipment. Based on the brief amount I listened to, there does seems to be improvement in identifing objects whether it's precip or not. But overall IMHO, it's still a sub par system, especially the interface and functionality. Personally I think weather.com still is a better option for radar info.
