On an impulse move today, I returned the Canon HG10 hard disk drive HD camcorder that I bought back in February from Costco (they give you a 90 day return policy)... I wasn't going to remain camcorderless for long so I took a small trip up the street to the Johnson County library and got on the computer and ordered a Canon HV30 HDV camcorder from Circuit City (they have it for $879. and I had a 8% off AAA coupon which dropped the total to $810.). I picked up the camcorder on the way back home from the library and have yet to mess around with it... Looks like I might need to go to Sam's Club or Costco and pick up a bulk of some miniDV tapes for the interesting week coming up. At least, now, video editing will be much easier using the miniDV system rather than the AVCHD codec (lame).
The 0Z April 18 GFS model has sure taken some very enticing and interesting strides at the severe weather potential for the upcoming week...bringing it closer to home! Of course I will still not go in to much detail as it is still a ways off and the NAM starts to pick it up tomorrow with Monday's SVR potential. But...looking very interesting...to say the least. I have taken out Sunday on the chase status as the potential is not too much there for any severe weather as the focus shifts more from the time period of Monday-Wednesday.
