Nope, I've never heard any sounds of any sorts from any of my neighbors when they are inside their apartments. And they aren't generally quiet people.

The buildings are made of cinder blocks and brick and well insulated. The wood you see there is just a front.

My oh-so-boring feed is currently a U-Stream editor's pick on the front page. heh.

Heh, do you get much wind whipping through that well-protected corridor for the cam to be exciting?

And you're lucky..... I've very much gotten my fill of sharing walls and a roof with other people.

On the front door cam, probably not. The wind tears through the parking lot, but even in the midst of Rita those plants there hardly stirred at all.

The top of that little courtyard is open, so you'll see some rain. But that'll probably be it.

I just set up a second cam ($24 at Walgreens, the only place still open at 2PM this afternoon) on my patio facing down between the buildings. That one should get some wind whipping up from the south ... but still probably not enough to be exciting. Plus the image is way overexposed, and I'm not sure what to do about that, sadly. I don't think it's meant for sunlight.

That is by far the most relevant reporting from a storm chaser I've ever seen.

Hilarious commercial.

I love the comments like the guy in the suit is an idiot, but somehow the reporter standing 20 yard in front of him is somehow immune.

If it was planned, then the video becomes rather boring.

If you listen to the chatter, I'm pretty sure it wasn't planned.

Red talks about Blue's lack of proper tactics and mocks them for their play and inability to get out the door. They also talk about people dropping from the Blue team.

I think someone on Blue was probably saying "Everyone go heavy and that's how we'll beat this scout rush."
