Wow, I was just a fifteen year old kid from Lake Whitney. Great memories.

I never imagined things getting that hot in 1980, especially in Dallas/Fort Worth. You have to admit, that really was a heatwave from what I've heard from current meteorologists at WFAA, especially Pete Delkus, Greg Fields, and Steve McCauley. Troy retired nearly three years earlier and since 1976 provided all of us with the best weather in North Texas. A lot has changed in the past 30 years, the equipment has changed, the forecasts have changed. "You can count on us" really stood for something.

I love it how funny "the 5 day forecast

I find it hilarious that in 1980 they have greenscreens and electronic maps yet there is still a pulldown 5 day forecast!

I meant weatherman.

@way2muchNFO Thanks for the kind words, especially on the 30th anniversary of my perhaps ill-advised departure from WFAA. Thank you, Thank you!
