New WXnation.com Webcam Live; XM Satellite Radio Adds Weather Channels; New Mobile Weather App For Sprint PCS Users; Cool Weather In Indy, Iowa
It appears my friends and co-workers really do read this daily display of musings, and one of them — Ginny Bonner — gets it right when she writes in a comment yesterday that a new addition to the *family* of WXnation.com Webcams is in South Dakota (with thanks to generous in-laws). Behold, a live view from Lake Mitchell, located just north of Mitchell, South Dakota’s city limits. One may see birds to the left, boaters on the water, or complete darkness at night. The cam updates automatically every 15 seconds, and now sits atop the list of webcam links in the Sioux Falls page. This cam joins WXnation.com’s first two cams, located due south (and quite a long way south, I might add) in Fort Worth, TX. And Frank, I know you were the first to post a comment on this, but Ginny had the guts to include her name, so she gets all the credit…
XM Satellite Radio will add traffic and weather channels devoted to Atlanta (XM Channel 227), Miami-Ft. Lauderdale (XM Channel 230), Minneapolis-St. Paul (XM Channel 219), San Diego (XM Channel 223), and Seattle (XM Channel 220) for a total of 21 traffic and weather channels for XM subscribers nationwide.

Air2Web and the Weather Channel develop new mobile weather application for Sprint PCS users
Cool Indy continues… has yet to see a 90 degree day this year, while it’s also cooler than usual in Iowa
Regarding the excuse listed in the
article from Indy; I haven’t read any-
thing any sillier. Lack of heat is not
caused by green landscape. It’s caused
by the jet stream and weather patterns.
The lack of heat plus liberal rains
brought on the greenness and big corn,
not the other way around.
