NWS Changes

Leave it to the government to mess it up

Please pardon the missing NWS forecast on my site. The NWS has changed the links to the forecast and now my scripts aren't working. They should be fixed by the next day or two. 

I apologize for the disruption.

Quite a few things messed up in the new site redo. My alerts I send to Twitter and Facebook still work since they come from the EMWN network but those on my site no longer work... at least for now. There are people working to correct the scripts and hopefully over the next day or two those will get fixed. I already have a NWS meteorologist filing a formal complaint tomorrow.

OK... weather alerts are working as well as all of the forecast scripts I have.
What a way to spend my time while I'm in Florida.

All fixed.

Even great things get disrupted with government involvement, I’m glad they’re here to help…

That is odd. I wonder if a sign is missing (or maybe more than one sign). Maybe Gwinnett DOT has anRead More answer: http://www.gwinnettcounty.com/portal/gwinnett/Departments/Transportation

OK - so the link doesn't work when you paste it into a comment. I see what you meant earlier.

Packing peaches near the SC/NC border at $0.60 an hour and all the peaches you could eat. I stillRead More hate peaches to this day.

In 1963 I was 14 and somehow landed a job mowing the lawn and doing other things for a prominentRead More local surgeon who had a 10 acre estate. They had a riding lawn mower and I was game to do anything that involved gas engines! It was a 2 mile bike ride there and I could work whenever I wanted and they paid me 50 cents an hour, so I was bringing home six or seven dollars a WEEK!!!

It's pretty but I found lots of bugs. I'm sure these will be worked out over time. It's new soRead More we'll give it some time.
Kristi Reed (Editor) June 18, 2013 at 08:54 am
Yes, unfortunately I've found a lot too but the engineers are working on it and hopefully we'll haveRead More a much more stable site shortly. In the meantime, please report any issues using the feedback tab on the right side of the page. Thanks!

"There are people in all levels of government office who would like nothing more than to beRead More able to conduct all the public business out of public view" The problem is, who's going to stop them? Certainly--no one from this justice department who is complicit in multiple overreaches and coverups.

I wrote this on another post but it so applies here and is worth repeating: James Madison wrote inRead More the federalist paper (no. 51) concerning the separation of powers and need for limited government , "“ It may be a reflection on human nature, that such devices should be necessary to control the abuses of government. But what is government itself, but the greatest of all reflections on human nature? If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself. A dependence on the people is, no doubt, the primary control on the government……” We need to have a "Madison moment"...

I remember when I opened up the news to see that Holder was going to investigate Holder. Ha! What'sRead More scary is that there are some who think that's just fine?
