An IDEA (which i think by now is already in the "works" yet, why no re-post it, as it might help some) is this time for ABC NYc /(AccuWeather) though it depends on how it sees VERIZON as affiliate or competitor the business world.
  Idea i sent to Microsoft when i heard they where going to create an "all in 1" infotainment system (Info HUB & INFO centre were the nutty nicknames i gave it back then) a few year back, had sent it also to The Weather Channel via their original message board in 2000? when they upgraded their compu'r weather alerts. The idea was bunched in with another idea to use bluescreens/keywalls in Studios easily accessible to the "TV/Movie" star that they desired on that day. The "media stars" would present weather maps on slow weather days by going to their nearest bluescreen/keywall studio and presenting weather then promoting their latest artistic creation as pay for being on The Weather Channel as type of professional bartering (BTW that "PROFESSIONAL BARTERING" is what will save the World economy and tried to give the idea to friend as a website idea in 2000 but some people just tune out yappers like me so he at that time did not listen.  Posting idea on that PROFESSIONAL BARTERING" as to saving nations economies at FOXBLogs/LIVEhournal via my akamrx ID some time in the next month.
  Now to The Weather Channel i sent the idea with a twist see asterisk below for that twist.

(back to IDEA)
Notice those VERIZON Hub phones why not develop a button where the user can decide whether to have a wether presenter on the mini screen. The choices would be three WITH A DELUXE SUB CHOICE FOR EACH and for the latter one would pay a fee that in part pays for the weather presenters wages.

CHOICES:
[Basic]  ---------    no weather presenter just simple weather maps.
[Basic DELUXE] no weather presenter but with complex weather maps.

[Audio] ---------     no weather presenter just simple weather maps but with NOAA or some meteorologist audio.
[Audio DELUXE] no weather presenter but with complex weather maps and NOAA or some meteorologist audio.

[Full]    ---------      a wether presenter i.e. "Jim Cantore","Kristina Abernathy","Melissa Barrington","Vivian Brown","Dr. Frank Fields" etc.
[Full deluxe} User can turn on/off the superimposed weather presenter's image and/or have a selection of OCPs.(the latter might cost more)

  This way meteorologists who took college courses in the last few year thinking they would luv to be presenting weather maps and on a visual media can be steered towards this type of HUB station instead of having no job and the same with those being let go from The Weather Channel and similar stations. Why not blend both media outlet types, it brings more subscribers to the HUB and it allows for present TV OCPs (On Camera Presenters) / OCMs to still have an income source.

----------------------   Asterisks explained below  ------------------------------

  **The twist is that The Weather Channel in their practice Key-wall studio would have lets say Jim Cantore,Vivian Brown,Jeff Morrow and Kim Perez all individually present one national quadrants weather or national map then local OCMs do the local maps (this now done by AccuWeather) but the twist is one can choose which OCP they want superimposed on to THEIR weather updates. Lets say one prefers the on Monday a more animated "on camera" personality i click on Jim Cantore or whatever button (A,B,C,D)is assigned to his name on the screen or if i may say with respect to her professionalism  desire a sultry type presenter then i choose Vivian Brown, or a perky persona then Kim Perez or if the HUB user is pregnant then Jeff Morrow (ya had to watch who Jeff's co-anchors where and his calming relaxed style during the 1990s to get that inside joke)or Mike Woods

Accidentally set the microLOw device at -4 (those who've read past blogbits know what that not to be believed device is including its area  influence from Rose Hill where i live, just south of Murray i Manhattan).
 Negative settings are usually not good an example of a negative output is what is occurring in N. Korea. reset the microLOW device to 8 at 1:45PM today.

 Next posting will be a clue on how to reverse most types of Parkinson.

Well i one has noticed since ~3 day after my last Wx CLUE blog titled "... or not 2 SNOW's..." it seems that very low passing by had two stages as passing by the nearest to NYc "Galacsic" Latitude colour line.

(Huh, Galacsic" Latitude colour line? To see where i state they are located one has to see my 'ol maps on what are galacsic lines to do that who has to hope my previous blogs links are still on my old blogbits be they at FOX,TRIPOD,SEVENLOAD,ABOUT.com etc and that the places where i posted them are also still in operating order).

 Now if one remembers (yeah right) i state Galacsics influences are at .666 LOWERING to .333% as we head toward the poles. Therefore Wx output from the "Tropics of..." 'Lat' lines towards their respective poles.

  Now several thousands of years ago this upcoming type of LOW in being influenced by that times Galacsic influences (star Cluster influence on certain angles as they reach this solar system to plane-ts) caused a MAIN LOW as this upcoming LOW (2009-03-01 thru 03) to retro-grade thus cause the parent LOWs first "child" LOW to have a forward motion in a TRUE Northward fashion (Toronto,Canada) then 'bowl' its second 'child' towards eventually Egypt by heading off what today is Northern Florida then ever so slowly go towar the ITCZ "line/area" eventually end up at Western Africa's door step then be PART of the causing of a back log. Since over Western Africa thus flood the Pyramids/Sphinx/(Giza) plateau but, who cares 'bout that. Now being that if our view of space where a complete watch (YrYr/Mnth/Date/hrhr/mnmn/secs) "star clusters" would be the years dial (Our moon the Seconds hand)thus though there are changes as he star clkuter influencing this Solar System's Galacsic "inteareaction"
  (several words as "intreareaction" are my words, not misspelled but on FOX blogs one cannot format it as to show all of these words so visit LIVEjournal's AKAMRX and search for the same TITLED blogbit, if there isn't one there its just i am too busy or lazy to have posted it yet) ... lets see how much of change by how the LOWs move,peace

Hey Mike….what’s up with the wind? Is it normal this time of year? I went out the other day, got halfway to where I was going and realized I hadn’t turned my car on! The good news is that it saved me on gas! I got home to find everyone else’s garbage in front of my house, in my alleys, pool, waterfall, everywhere but a garbage can! Speaking of garbage cans, I now have a collection of those too, none of which were mine! So once again Mike, what’s up with the wind??? It was so windy out, my ideas flew into my neighbors head, now he’s making money with MY JOKES!!! Mike, help me out here…What’s up with the wind?? Garbage can lids flying all over the place, it looked like a freakin’ Frisbee festival! Like the song, I had Mariah all over my body and you know I have a big body dude. I had to tie my car to a tree, and the tree was almost uprooted. Shades of Dorothy and Toto…Mike make the wind go away, I’m sick of making involuntary U-turns man. Oh wait…It stopped…NEVER MIND!

An intensifying storm well offshore will keep a northwest flow in our area overnight and with a clear sky returning it will turn out to be very cold overnight as well. The low temperature will drop to 17 degrees in Midtown and 5-15 degrees across the colder suburbs.

Sunshine will lead to some clouds by Wednesday afternoon but it will remain quite cold with the northwest flow still in place. High temperatures will be in the mid to upper 20s. Some clouds will be around Wednesday night as the low temperature heads down to 22 degrees in Midtown and 15-20 degrees across the suburbs.

Lots of sunshine can be expected on Thursday as well but with a bit of a warming trend developing as the wind becomes more west to southwest. High temperatures will rise into the mid and upper 30s.

For the first time in a long time, we will break the 40 degrees mark on Friday with a combination of sun and clouds. High temperatures should reach into the low and mid 40s.

But don't get used to that as another shot of cold, arctic air is aiming for us over the weekend. It will be breezy on Saturday with a good amount of sunshine. High temperatures will struggle to reach 30 degrees in most places.

Sunday and Monday will see high temperatures only in the mid and upper 20s with lots of sun for Sunday and sun and clouds for Monday along with the threat of some snow showers.

Cold weather remains in place for Tuesday and a storm system moving at us from the west will bring the threat of snow. High temperatures will be close to 30 degrees.

The band of light snow in the area this evening will be coming to an end pretty quickly leaving behind 1 to 2 inches of snow. The sky will begin clear out after midnight as this weak storm system moves off the New England coast. The low temperature will be 23 degrees for Midtown and 15-20 degrees across the colder suburbs.

The cold air will be reinforced on Tuesday. Another storm will get organized along the North Carolina coast but track out to sea well to our south and east. A gusty breeze will develop here during the day with a combination of sun and clouds.

High temperatures will struggle to reach 30 degrees. This storm may brush the eastern end of Long Island with a little snow Tuesday night otherwise it will be a breezy and cold night for the tri-state area with some clouds from time to time. The low temperature will drop to 18 degrees in Midtown and 10-15 degrees across the colder suburbs.

We'll get back to lots of sunshine on Wednesday but it will still be rather breezy and quite cold. High temperatures will be in the upper 20s.

Lots of sunshine can be expected on Thursday as well but with a bit of a warming trend too. High temperatures will rise into the upper 30s.

For the first time in a long time, we may break the 40 degrees mark on Friday with clouds and sun.

But don't get used to that as another shot of cold, arctic air is aiming for us over the weekend. It will be breezy on Saturday with sun and clouds. High temperatures will struggle to reach 30 degrees.

Sunday and Monday will see high temperatures only in the mid and upper 20s with some sun on Sunday and the next threat of snow arriving by Monday afternoon.

Tuesday was the warmest day of the week thanks to a south - southwesterly airflow. The first of two arctic fronts will cross the area overnight plunging us into the deep freeze for an extended period of time. There may be some rain or snow showers that will accompany the front later tonight then the wind will also get quite gusty. The low temperature will drop to 22 degrees in Midtown and 15-20 degrees across the colder suburbs.

It will be breezy and quite cold on Wednesday as sunshine gives way to some clouds by later in the day. High temperatures will only be in the mid 20s with wind chill values in the single digits to around 10 degrees. A clipper system will rapidly approach the area late Wednesday leading to clouds along with some light snow to develop late at night. The low temperature in Midtown will be 17 degrees with 10-15 degrees across the suburbs.

Clouds and some light snow will continue into early Thursday afternoon. There is likely to be a light accumulation in the range of 1 to as much as 3 inches in some spots. We'll update that on tomorrow's forecast. High temperature will be in the low to mid 20s.

In the wake of this storm, the coldest air of the season so far will come rushing in under a gusty northwest wind. Despite lots of sunshine on Friday, high temperatures will only make it to the mid teens after morning low temperatures dip into the single digits. Wind chill values will be below zero during the morning.

The wind will be less of a factor on Saturday but it will still remain very cold. We'll have sun and some clouds with high temperatures struggling to get to 20 degrees.

A weak disturbance will cross the area on Sunday bringing some clouds along with the threat of snow showers. It won't be quite as cold but high temperatures look to be just above 30 degrees.

More snow showers will be in the area on Monday as high temperatures rise into the low and mid 30s.

The cold air will get reinforced by Tuesday with sun and clouds. High temperatures will have a tough time reaching 30 degrees.

Hello everyone!  How are we doing out there?  I've got to say I'm feeling a whole lot better than I did yesterday.  Mondays can be so rough!  Speaking of... we are in for a rough stretch when it comes to the winter time temperatures.  Another Alberta clipper is rolling into town here and it's going to drop our temperatures like a rock!

Let's focus first on the good stuff... what we have going here today!  Today we are on the warm side of the incoming Clipper system so our temperatures will be slightly above normal... topping out in the lower 40s.  But as this clipper slides by tonight we'll have a slight chance for a few snow showers but the most notable change will be the temperature drop.  Yep!  Your highs will drop into the mid 20s Wednesday and Thursday and then we'll see highs only in the mid teens come Friday.

So make sure you're ready for a very frigid blast here folks... It is a coming!!

Bundle up!!
