WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : I find analog TV transmissions having stronger signal strength than digital transmissions, example 5.1> I was told by person at a retail TV store that effective w/the changeover Feb 2009 stations will significantly increase their digital power. Is this true or not true?
WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : This is not a weather question but perhaps your scientific minds can answer. We watch WRAL in HD (great!). When it is stated that announcements - closings and the like - are shown at bottom of screen - we don't get those in HD. Can this be remedied or is it just a fact of HD?
WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : I noticed for the second time with the weather the way it is that there are 5 counties that are not included in any sort of advisory though they are surrounded by counties that are. Why are they not included? Different criteria for their area? Terrain feature that makes the weather go around them? Big plastic bubble that only gets bad weather when shaken? Ok, just kidding on that last one but still curious.
WRAL WeatherCenter Blog : Obviously yearly rainfall totals give us a better idea of the degree of drought, but how much variance is typical in yearly rainfall totals? What is the standard deviation on annual rainfall amounts at RDU?
