What's so hard about waiting? News articles say Amtrak was going 50 mph. At that speed, it takes less than a minute for the entire sequence of gates going down, train going by, gates going back up, to occur. I really hate to be cynical, but one of my favorite phrases is: The mother of idiots is always pregnant.
Only 40 degrees in Omaha right now. 50s will return for Friday, but I think our days of 60s and 70s have come to an end until spring. Got my seasonal flu shot today at school, but I don't plan on getting an H1N1 vaccine. Seemed like the nurse got the needle stuck in my arm or something, so she gave it a good yank and out it came. I'll probably be pretty sore by later this afternoon, not to mention scarred for life. I'll be visiting one of our local TV stations this evening with the Creighton
The tour was very nice. The station was indeed pretty bargain-basement. I've toured one other TV station in Omaha and it was pretty snazzy compared to this one. However, I do believe that this station we toured tonight does a good job with the news and weather. And speaking of news, they only have one newscast per day, which is at 9:00 PM central time. The meteorologist that gave us the tour was also obviously very devoted to his profession and to serving the public to the best of his ability

54 degrees and sunny in the Big 'O' today, headed for a high of 62 degees. This is really a remarkable stretch of weather we've had after a cold and wet October. Just as a sidenote, October 2009 was the 3rd coldest October on record for the United States. That's a sure sign of global warming. I'm happy to report that I did much better on my second Calculus test than on my first. I no longer have to worry about failing the class! Everyone have a good Veterans Day!

[quote user="Modelcar"] 50 degrees now, and clear skies.....so that means a day of bright sunshine again today. Wish Winter had these kinds of days as the norm, but of course there is no utopia as we know. Even down south has it's down side at times. [/quote] Speaking of the down sides of the south, Hurricane Ida is rumbling toward the Gulf Coast. A hurricane watch has even bee issued from Grand Isle, LA to the Mississippi/Alabama Border. Gotta love these late season surprises. Happy
[quote user="JoeKoh"] good morning Speaking of other homework the weather guessers might get an "A" if the weather holds on like they say.Time to pay some bills and get a nap. stay safe joe [/quote] And speaking of weather guessers, this weather guesser got a 100% on his third atmospheric sciences exam! Yay! It is sunny and 43 degrees to start the day here in Omaha. We're headed for a high of 64 by late afternoon. Not much else to report this morning. I hope everyone has a
When I was little, my family lived not too far from Warren Buffett. In fact, he was close enough that we could go by his house when I went trick-or-treating. His porch light was never on... Cloudy and 30 degrees to start off the day in Omaha. We're headed for a high temperature in the mid 50s. By Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, we can expect mid to upper 60s. I hope everyone has a good day!
[quote user="Modelcar"] Overcast and windy..... but warm....69 degrees now at 10:30. [/quote] Wow, I don't think it'll be 69 degrees at 10:30 AM here in Omaha again until sometime in March or April. You're lucky! In Omaha it's 43 degrees with mist right now. Just a friendly (and early) reminder that daylight savings time ends this weekend. Remember to "fall back" tomorrow evening. Check the batteries in your smoke detectors too! I'm going to try to relax this
