Yesterday it was raining here ,I wanted to get my bike over to my Indy for a lil work.So I looked at the local rader an saw a break comingas soon as it stoped I hit the road got there in about 20 minutes.Did the work took about an hour.Did the same on his computer,saw another break coming an got home with out getin one drop on me.I thinkthats pretty cool.
My life would be in tatters if I didn't have this computer. If I'm not watching the radar I'm reading the latest news, browsing this forum, doing accounting for the business, or retouching photographs.... The list is neverending. I even record TV programs with it.
The Weather Channel (www.weather.com) has a new radar feature that allows you to zoom in and out, down to your subdivision and street if desired. I also use the one at Weather Underground (www.wunderground.com) that has a similar feature, and it also has good tropical weather info, which is useful here in LA during the hurricane season. It shows coordinates of storms along with computer models, etc.
What ever happened to looking out the window and chancing it? Asking old uncle how his knee was feeling and going for it. Gotta live on the edge a little guys or we will become mindless robots, Orwells 1984.
