• Frank Batten's The Weather Channel: The Improbable Rise of a Media Phenomenon examines the difficult yet rewarding journey of a novel idea turned billion dollar reality. ... As with most children, "The Weather Channel" supplied numerous parental headaches from the drawing board to the first broadcast inception of the great cable experiment. As an entire generation has learned that "The Weather Channel" is only a press of the button away, Batten reveals that the initial efforts possessed birth pains that at any one time could have ended the untried endeavor. ...
• Batten begins his journey describing his role in Landmark Communications, the parent company of "The Weather Channel. ...
• Batten details the struggle of acquiring advertising revenue for The Weather Channel as potential clients remained wary of investing in a new television experiment during the recession of the early 1980s. ... Money problems plagued the early years of "The Weather Channel. ...
• The author also details the sheer technical machinery and at times wizardry utilized to successfully initiate and run the never-attempted twenty-four hour weather operation. Batten carefully walks through the process of acquiring a satellite for the new network and the quirk of fate that allowed "The Weather Channel" to gain a "bird" at the last possible moment. ...
• Batten looks with great pride at the present condition of "The Weather Channel" as well as cable television in general. He writes of the expansion of the entire cable industry as "The Weather Channel" itself expanded beyond television as the information super-highway and technological advancements have enabled greater opportunities to expand on the twenty year old experiment. ...
• Also, the inclusion of the history of early weather reporting and detection seemed out of place and perhaps should be placed at the beginning of the work. ... A good deal of the out-of-sight escapades, placed throughout the text and especially focusing on the early years of "The Weather Channel," would have brought the personalities of the participants more clearly to the forefront and revealed the on- and off-air experimentation that occurred at the time. ...
• The work will appeal to not only entrepreneurs with a dream, but also to those who allow for some time in their day, no matter how minuscule, for "The Weather Channel. ...

• Finally, Some Real Antarctic Weather.
• Predicting the weather in Antarctica is challenging. Like weather forecasters everywhere, Jim and Clyde depend on observations from remote sites and satellites to help them with their computer models. But there are only 13 weather observation stations on the continent, and the polar weather satellites don’t provide continuous coverage (they go out of sight for a couple of hours every afternoon). ...
• That means that weather can sneak up on Antarctica, sometimes with little warning. The station does have a new experimental weather model developed for them by the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, but the model needs accurate and sufficient data to make good predictions. Still, Chester told me it’s performing well in smaller windows, although accurate 5-day weather forecasts remain a dream here. ...
• In the short term, veterans take weather predicting into their own hands when they venture out on the ice. Because most of the storms come from the Ross Sea to the south, the savvy ice travelers tend to look to "Hurbie Alley" for dark clouds that signal bad weather is on the way. ...

• “The tornadoes in Oklahoma originate from the moisture supplied by the Gulf of Mexico and the dry air from the Rocky Mountains,” said Brad McGavock, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Tulsa. ...
• Oklahoma has “50 or so tornadoes a year,” said David Andra, meteorologist at the Norman Weather Center, so many residents of the state may recognize the warning signs of a potential tornado.
• “These include a dark, often greenish sky, a wall cloud, large hail and a loud roar similar to a freight train,” according to the National Weather Service Web site.
• When these signs appear in any county, it is always a good idea to turn on a local weather station and prepare yourself, Stadler said.

• "That's a very much finer density than you usually see on weather maps," he said. ...
• After collecting data, Hanssen obtained corroborating weather records to show that different weather phenomena have signatures that can be identified in the radar. ...
• "The main problem is that these data are produced every 10 meters on the ground and most weather models break the earth up into much larger squares, perhaps 110 kilometers in length on one side," he said. "So there's a remaining step that needs to be done in the meteorological community in looking at micro-weather phenomenon. " Zebker said that weather forecasting is increasingly moving toward microclimate observations, especially in densely populated regions such as the Bay Area where the climate changes dramatically within a small area. "I think what you're going to see is people developing regional weather models and using high-resolution data such as what we're beginning to produce," he said. ...
