  1. Can't they promote him since many people approve unless he has a solid weekday gig? (probably so) Maybe him at 4pm and 5pm and Cecily at 6pm 11pm. Or he just ship to a different station? He seems comfortable in his current role though...who knows?
  2. ^Agree. He offers good analyst and a snow weenie...often brings up model runs as well.
  3. I watch the 11pm the other night and all Glenn showed was the 3 day forecast? I never know when they'll show the 10 day? Seems to change day-day? It's like they want viewers to keep viewing/guessing when the 10 day will show up? (ratings) Ch6 is so much more professional (maybe that's why they're always #1) I almost had it w/Glenn/NBC 10...
  4. Make that 3. That's my time period as well. Around the 2nd-3rd of Feb is usually my cut off line then you have to hope for overnight snow. Sure, you "can" get snow during the day after that but it's usually slop which melts on the road as soon as the intensity lets up. You would need perfect conditions for a daytime storm. (temps in the 20's, low dense clouds and snow intensity) Overall, I've given up and would cash my Winter chips in now for a much below normal (temps) Spring and a below normal Summer. This Winter has been boring torture and not the least bit fun.
  5. Pretty sure squires flying horizontally...
  6. Holy smokes...windy as hell out there at 3:20am. Def 40mph at times...wind burn galore.
  7. ^ Sounds like he needs new subscriptions...
  8. That is so damn annoying and useless....they just want to create the "wow" factor.
  9. Too big and cumbersome...quite frankly, it's a expensive heap of shiet with no real use...NBC fail.
  10. It was on the road live today tracking road conditions w/ the on-board camera facing the road. Thing is, it could have been a 74' Pinto w/a camera and no one would've notice the difference. What a waste...a hurricane is the only place where I see that thing being useful.
  11. I never know when he'll throw out the 10 day? It seems to change? Sometimes at 4:20pm...4:45pm etc...11:15pm sometimes not?
  12. MGorse...lol. Something didn't look right there...
  13. That's his first "guess" not his final call. Still doesn't look good...
  14. Too much clutter...data overload. After all these years ch6 (accu weather) hasn't changed all that much and is quite clear. They give the temps, focus on the map and what's going to happen then focus on the forecast. Simple is sometimes better...
  15. They want the whole "neighborhood weather" thing to sound all friendly and happy....but it offers zero substance.
  16. If 2 people have the same thought(s) at the same time NBC10 is doing something wrong.
  17. ^JTA66, holy crap! We posted at the same time and have the same thoughts!
  18. Yep, it's a mess these days. It's difficult to watch. Spends 90% of time discussing the temps in every location then wings through the 10 day forecast like the studio is on fire. The whole layout/presentation is pretty bad. Not sure if it was his idea or the network?
  19. That's pretty much the solution. But why is the Philly forum getting canned to begin with? It's not harming anyone...
  20. Yep...I know all about the 64 Phils although not alive. I like sports history in general, good or bad although mostly bad in Philly...lol.
  21. Just get tinted windows and you'll be fine...
  22. True Philly fans know this....others teams just bash us for smashing Santa...but meh. I'm used to this by now. It is quite interesting though. At times I wish I was older to have been there.
  23. Good long range temp-wise from Christmas-New years (unlike last year)...throw in a clipper or two and I'll be super happy.
  24. Fox 29 Winter Outlook: -Going with a snowy Jan like Glenn -Unlike Glenn, going with -1 temps for Feb (Glenn has +2) -Unlike Glenn, no snow in Dec...mostly rain. (burbs may be a different story) Snowfall Map: http://tinyurl.com/zajxgbh
  25. Don't have DVR and rarely watch TV besides sports. May cut the cord soon... Ch 6 winter outlook. Cecily emphasizing many smaller storms rather than one big mother...
