Wintry Weather - Weather Star XL v1 - January 15, 2024
In lieu of some sort of "Christmas in July" event, we're going back to wintry weather that happened back in January! This was another early recording of the XL v1 graphics made not long after I fixed up the graphics pack for use again. For some reason I never got around to uploading this, so what better time than now?
(Also yes, I'm very aware the capture device was dying on me during this recording lol)

Winslow, AZ - Weather Star 4000 - June 30, 2024
zhlédnutí 673Před měsícem
This was a fun one to put together! Thanks to @xoddf2 generously providing his own photos of an otherwise unarchived 4000 in Winslow, AZ, I was able to bring that unit back to life in a sense! It's not 100% perfect on the radar, but it was still really cool to see this in action. And there was a thunderstorm to boot! Song credits: "Layla" by Derek and the Dominos
Hurricane Beryl - IntelliStar 1 - July 7-8, 2024

These are all the clips I recorded of Hurricane Beryl's track toward Texas and its landfall, as seen from the Corpus Christi/Port Lavaca area. Previously a Category 5 storm that broke numerous hurricane history records and caused chaos in the Caribbean, the storm was much weaker but still resiliently attempting to intensify again when it made landfall in Texas as a Category 1 storm. Even as a w...
Atlanta, GA - Weather Star 4000 - June 26, 2024
zhlédnutí 862Před 2 měsíci
Ten years ago yesterday, The Weather Channel's analog feed was shut off for the final time. With that move, the Weather Star 4000, XL, and Jr. were all sadly discontinued and the network moved towards the homogenized look it has today. Of course, it's possible to use those Stars today with some tinkering, but most affected by the shutdown was the 4000, whose software was completely lost as a re...

On May 6, a multi-day tornado outbreak across the United States began, at first centered around Oklahoma, where a rare high risk convective outlook for the day had been issued by the Storm Prediction Center.

Millinocket, ME - WeatherStar XL v1 - New Year's 2024

My first ever XL v1 video, recorded just in time for the beginning of 2024! Yes, these are original v1 graphics, but with a few caveats since it's running on a slightly modified setup. For example, original v1 had bulletin headlines at the beginning of the 36 hour segment, but I haven't gotten that far yet. The radar was also more like the 4000 and not like later XL renditions. Nonetheless, thi...

The end is near. At least for the holiday season. To celebrate, I've brought around the OG, the GOAT, the original Millinocket Star XL setup that was the inspiration for Milinoket Cabbl so many years ago. And to celebrate, Dad brought back a classic as well. While Christmas may be over for this year, always remember, Cabbl Claus is always watching. Unsubscribe from Comcast, or else you may get ...

Tampa, Florida, would definitely be one of the first places I'd go to for mild and calmer weather in December. I think the amount of calm weather this entire event, while not the most interesting thing in the world, is relieving in a sense. December is typically a second severe weather season around here. Also, this was such a fun location to set up! Note how it's a pretty unique XL setup since...

If you're not a fan of all the cool weather, just huddle around Larry, who might remain a bonfire for some time after that hot sauce. This was requested by @...

This was actually recorded in the early morning hours due to a technical difficulty, but I'm still counting it as a night since the sun hadn't risen yet. Flint, MI had a snow event in the forecast for that morning, but it ultimately proved to just be snow showers. Not gonna lie, y'all are probably happy it didn't end up being heavy. Something to bond over, even, unlike the Cabbl crew's attempt ...

This is absolutely incredible. So great to see the graphics come to life all these years later; a true throwback to my early childhood as my cable company upgraded the the XL not too long after I started watching TWC!
That storm gave me 12.5 inches of snow. That was more than the entire 2019-2020 season, which only gave me 6.3 inches. This was also my first double digit snowfall since March 21, 2018 when 19 inches fell.
That same storm gave me a windstorm that night with constant 40-50 mph wind gusts with some higher gusts at times. I even peaked at 58 mph. I even had a Severe Thunderstorm Warning at 6 AM the next morning. I did not sleep well that night due to the constant high winds.
That was a crazy storm even for Florida. Ian came into my area here in PA a few days later with 5 rainy days in a row. I got 4.5 inches of rain from Ian, but because it came over 5 days, there was no flooding.
That same storm system brought some wintry weather for me the next day with 0.2 inch of snow/sleet with a light glaze of ice before going over to rain.
That was less than 24 hours before a heavy rainstorm began hitting the Mid Atlantic.
This was taken as a significant rainstorm was hitting my area. I got 4.47 inches of rain that night into the following morning with flooding reported. I would end up with over 13 inches of rain in December 2023 alone.
Awesome video. I got 3.6 inches of snow/sleet from that storm here in PA.
Awesome video. That same storm moved up the east coast and gave me 5 inches of snow. I only had a Winter Weather Advisory because I live in PA and are more accustomed to the snow.

Super local forecast track! 🤩
0:33, 1:51 - Is that the 2001 basemap?
that is exactly what it is - though it's dated somewhere around 1998-99 instead of 2001.
yes it is, it’s the original XL v1 one
Dont comment often but just gotta say your an absolute king for uploading these things, thanks for doing it!!!
XL v1 🔛🔝

@@TheOFFICIALKingsIslanderALT this is a legit IntelliStar
@@triplectwc i mean how do you obtain it?? I do have the WS4000 by taiganet
@@TheOFFICIALKingsIslanderALT you just have to be lucky enough to find something on a website like eBay, it’s very uncommon now
@@triplectwcI just want to put in my two cents. I don't intend to come off as aggressive or hostile, just assertive. This reply just rubbed me a certain way that I feel something needs to be said about preservation. The contents of its non-volatile storage, including its root partition, firmware, EEPROMs, and technical specifications are quite valuable. Hell, the output of "uname -a" is worth something. FreeBSD I'm guessing. What version? What kernel modules are loaded? What does its dmesg output look like after booting? What is the output of what ever the FreeBSD equivalent to lspci is? Its basic filesystem hierarchy? Its partitioning scheme? Data buses? There's technical people with a passion for preserving old hardware that will eventually be permanently lost to bitrot and time. Don't take this personally, but keeping it all to yourself due to legal or ethical considerations is not sustainable. I hope you've at least made a full disk clone/backup using the dd command, as that unit will succumb to age. It is *not* impossible to retrofit, or literally port the software, even if in binary machine code, to modern hardware, if it relies on proprietary hardware that will eventually die. The core logic and presentation of the unit's software can be considered logically separate from its interaction with the hardware. Also of significant note are the utility of FPGAs for reimplementing the real hardware at the circuit level. I'm saying this from a perspective of passion to preserve a significant artifact of my childhood while it still physically exists, just like console emulators. And sometimes you gotta bend and break the rules for that, and there's ways to get the ball rolling anonymously. Take this as a hint hint nudge nudge that someone might be interested in taking a crack at such a feat but lacks the resources to do so.
It was really awesome to have the remnants of Beryl come up here to the mitten, and to say that we were a part of such a record-breaking hurricane. I learned to drive in 2010, but other than the dad and I going out to Newburgh NY to meet Irene in 2011, this was my first opportunity to drive through a tropical system or its remnants. Beryl’s remnants came in mostly overnight that Tuesday night, and I spent all night driving in it.
Nice!
storm's a brewin'
Good video i miss them icons
I miss the old WS4000. It's the one I grew up with.
"There's a girl my lord in a flat bed Ford slowing down to take a look at me."
Just realized the location name was misspelled on the extended forecast (oops!).. that’ll be fixed in future videos I make with this location. The original Star had lots of degradation which made it hard to read
Such a fine sight to see! (iykyk lol)
I love the 1998-2006 mostly cloudy night icon.
I love the old Instellistars so much!
Classic - Layla and any STAR. Nice to see some sort of footage, recon or not, for someplace isolated in terms of (publicly known) STAR coverage
amazing work, Triple C!
Storm alert music always a welcome sight
nice
IS THAT AMERICUS?!?!
Hard to believe it's 10 years already since the analog shutdown of The Weather Channel. The end of 2024 will also mark the 20th anniversary of the shutdown of the WeatherSTAR 3000 (III) as well. That was the first legacy STAR model in TWC's history that was retired.
The 4000's software was lost after the analog shutdown? I did not realize that. Hard to believe as well that it's been so long since we lost the analog STARs. You called TWC homogenized now, and I couldn't agree more.
I’m late responding to this-but if you get a chance to check out the 4000’s manual (check the links at the bottom of the 4000 TWC Archive article), notice how the software storage depended on a battery that would run out after four hours.. unfortunately that translates to total software loss when the feed shut off
First!
Love it!
As many of you know, yesterday marked the 10-year anniversary of this channel! Check out my recent community post for my statement on that. I figured now would be a great time to debut the next generation of my IntelliStar videos recorded using its digital ASI output. Expect at least a few new videos over the next few days!
