Will It Snow This Monday

[snowmadchrisuk]

Hi all, John has put together a brief video to discuss the prospects for snow this Monday, which you can view here:

http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=beta1;sess=

It's also being used as an initial test of our new video platform, which will soon be used on the Netweather TV service - so please let us know your thoughts on it and if you see any bugs or issues..

Cheers

Paul

(please don't use this thread for weather based discussions)

It buffered a few times for me .. I'm using mobile broadband (t-mobile) . Maybe an option to choose to watch the videos at a lower bit rate would be useful for some .

Defo working in firefox here!

Paul, will the NW TV channel be available on Freeview?

Or isn't it going to be a channel lol?

Yep, excellent Beta Paul, works fine on Vista x64 with firefox 3 browser.....good and concise forecast btw, look forward to the official NW video service :unsure:

[Rustynailer]

I would like to see human presence on the video, otherwise you are just another ensemble member :lol:

Only joking, it is good, I will watch it every day twice, once before I go to work, once when I get home and once more if there are chances of thunder or snow or both on the 18z

No glitches and no heated discussions about snow or the beast or which model is hormonal atm :unsure:

Thanks for this I just know its going to be a good thing.

By the way I love the MOD, it exudes emotion, after all when some people throw rattles out of prams its sooooo funny sometimes It reminds me of driving in rush hour

Kind regards,

Russ.

please remember its not a forecast of snow for Monday, I simply used that day as it APPEARED to have something to talk about using the 06z data output.

So as Paul says its a test to see what is possible so please comment on the technical side not the forecast side.

Nice to see good old fashioned pressure charts hoorah!!

[NorthernRab]

Very nice, I like. :unsure:

Edit: The way the video is presented that is.

Really good, these would be handy for all of us who have no idea of the models, maybe daily instead of the summary?

[icy toes]

Just to add - works perfectly in Safari as well. Looks like I'm the only Mac user in here :unsure:

[Koppite]

UKMO Global = 50 layers

Global Ensemble = 28 layers

GFS = 64 layers

Quick note to those who haven't seen it - we're beta testing our new video platform with a quick look at whether it may snow on Monday - take a look here:

Hi all, what do i need to be able to view this video as my screen is blank at present, thanks. :unsure:

[moogyboobles]

Yep a bit blocked up!!!

Sounds a teeny bit like Robin Cooper (of Timewaster Letters/phonecalls) to me! :unsure:

You shouldn't need any additional software so long as you have flash installed and active in your browser.

[mezzacyclone]

Only just caught this but may I say what a pleasure it is to view,

takes all the complexities written in the model thread out (along with the obvious 1+1=2 bile posts) and allows a great understanding for a given probable big "event" in laymans terms for us non techies.

Looking forward to the NWTV bizniss and many thanks to Paul and John :unsure: ,

(A little coaching from Stevie M`s old vids wouldnt go amiss, :lol: )

[The watcher]

Clear enough audio and video wise. A=10 V=9

Sorted it thanks Paul, i hadn't got a flash installed. I've now installed adobe flash player. Video looks great, looking forward to netweather T.V.

[Stratos Ferric]

Good feature; "picture" and "thousand words" springs to mind.

[Lakes Tom]

Have just watched the video and it worked fine - don't know loads about the charts so this video was really helpful. Cassie on Lakes Tom's login. Edited December 30, 2008 by Lakes Tom

Nothing there appears to be blank.Oh hang on lets try in IE instead of FF. Ok fine in internet explorer but doesn't work in Firefox.

works for me in firefox its great well done

[smarty81]

A simple description of how events might unfold on monday all the right ingriedients but not much precip, An interesting watch thanks john.

[Nick F]

Nice one, if Paul can do it, I can do it.

Be nice to be on a video on N-W without the swearing that normally accompanies the US storm chase videos, though that's baecause Paul Sherman and I get so excited on our storm chases.

[Paul]

You should have heard the bits I cut out - plenty of f'ing and blinding as a few sections took a few takes!

[Cookie]

that was so fantastic you guys rock

[VillagePlank]

re: the title. Should it be rather named 'Will is snow this winter?'

[johnholmes]

being a touch pedantic this time in the morning

who is Will is?

[azores92]

being a touch pedantic this time in the morning

[TomS]

Really excellent. Should be a big help to dinosaurs like me who need things spelled out for them in this modern technological world!
