TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS/TPC NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
530 PM EDT SUN AUG 8 2004

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL DEPRESSION TWO HAVE BECOME A LITTLE BETTER
ORGANIZED DURING THE PAST 24 HOURS AND CONSIST OF AN AREA OF
CLOUDINESS AND THUNDERSTORMS LOCATED OVER THE EXTREME NORTHWEST
CARIBBEAN SEA. THIS SYSTEM HAS SOME POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL
DEVELOPMENT DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO AS IT MOVES SLOWLY
NORTHWESTWARD. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE UNIT RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT
IS SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE ON MONDAY AFTERNOON...IF NECESSARY.


A TROPICAL WAVE IS LOCATED A FEW HUNDRED MILES EAST OF THE WINDWARD
ISLANDS AND IS MOVING WESTWARD NEAR 25 MPH. THERE IS NO SIGN OF
TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION...HOWEVER THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO
BRING THUNDERSTORMS TO PORTIONS OF THE LESSER ANTILLES OVER THE
NEXT DAY OR TWO.


ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH MONDAY.

FORECASTER LAWRENCE

Can we please stop with the color fonts? The red hurts my eyes and I have to highlight the words to read them. If you want to make them bold, italic, or underlined that's fine, but please no colors.

Your not the only one Tom. Please don't take it personally.

My brightness is fine. I like red fonts, but for some reason here it's REALLY bright.

Sure, I won't take it personal. (Do you think I may be for some reason?) -- but some of us like to do something like this to make it more "showy," Colorizing text without bolding it doensn't look good to me and probably enough people here. :)

I figured I'd color code the two different system, red being "more important" than the blue.

I think it's a standard monitor(from Hewlett-Packard), but it has buttons to adjust the size of the screen, the brightness and the sharpness just below the screen where the power button is.

I would try to fiddle with it. Like I said I made the red less bright but maybe not with brightness because I used auto :wink:
