Ivan Tops Floyd for Weather Channel
The Weather Channel posted a 1.9 Nielsen Media Research total-day (5 a.m.-2 a.m.) household rating for its coverage of Hurricane Wednesday, equaling more than 1.6 million homes.
TWC’s coverage set a total-day record for the network, besting the 1.7 it earned Sept. 14, 1999, during Hurricane Floyd.
The network reached its peak from 9:30 p.m.-9:45 p.m. with a 3.6 rating, or more than 3.1 million households.

Take this ...
and multiply it by 10 more hours, and that is what happened in our area yesterday (yes, that is my voice narrating everything)...
Jason,
Living in Orlando as I do, I have never seen you 'in action' on TV, but I have read your posts and HIGHLY respect your opinion. I'm sorry that you and your neighbors had to endure and its effects and I am truly pleased to see that you personally, and I hope all of your family and neighbors came through this relatively intact and uninjured. Having just gone through two similar experiences here (magnified by living in a trailer) and having to evacuate twice and prepare for a third (and possibly a fourth), we share common experiences that will bind us even closer together in the future. I give thanks that you are OK and when you rest up and recover from the trauma, that you will stop by this forum often and continue to contribute your knowledge and opinions.
I am sure that the other members of this site and many of its' visitors will feel much the same as I do when I say: Thanks and we're grateful you were spared to remain our friend.

Trying to look at this video. Getting a codec error. Anyone know how to fix that?

On my system, I am unable to establish a connection to the server per the MS media viewer, but on a hunch, I downloaded the *.wmv file to my desktop and dragged it to the viewer and voila, it worked. Maybe that is a solution for you. It is worth downloading and locating a codec because the link may be broken or taken off-line in the future and you won't be able to get a copy from there.
