Default Downtown webcam featured on The Weather Channel

The downtown cam live was on The Weather Channel (national TV) at least twice today. I don't have cable/sat, but Randy called & said he saw it at around 2 (& thereafter @ 6 PM).

I called my pop in ATL after the first sighting, and he hit the DVR & caught it. Said it was the entire backdrop for the weatherperson. It may take a trip to ATL to grab it out of the DVR, but I will post it here when I have it. Thanks Randy for allowing me/us to realize a few seconds of quasi-fame!

Some ppl asked "Why?" when I put the cam up several years ago. I said, "Well (duh) to promote Blue Ridge at least nationally in a (relatively-speaking) cheap way for everybody?"

& SNOW SELLS in the SE.

"Stay tuned to The Weather Channel for the latest updates
..."

Very cool. Heard TWC was in town and that they screwed up the forecast! Wish we were there!
