Does anyone else wish that the weather channel would give _yesterday’s_ weather, too? The day’s highs, lows, snow/rainfall amounts, and the humidity, heat index/wind chill? Ok, maybe it’s just me… 🙂 ---

I just love The Weather Channel. I could watch it all day. I wish I could get radar images from all over the country and have a wall of many televisions so that I could make it like a map of radars. 😉 Seriousluy, I just think it’s cool. I want to work for them…maybe they have a job opening. ---

**elfkin** , TWC does a feature about the weather week in review. I’m not sure when it’s on, probably sometime on the weekend. I couldn’t find it listed on the website’s programming guide. ---

I find it amusing myself – I can tell you what the weather is going to be like where I live – its going to be hot (92 ish) and there will be scattered thunderstorms around 5 or 6pm. It is like that here every summer…we don’t need no stinking weather channel. ---

We in the UK are supposed to obsessed with the weather but about four years ago the Weather Channel started up over here. They lasted about six months before they ran out of money and closed down.So perhaps we are not so interested in the weather after all.
