(8/9) Todays forecast calls for...

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

... Scattered sartruce, patches of taupe, and magenta gusts up to 20 mph.

i figured it was pretty self explanatory. I mentioned the color bar prediction thing of doom. The color on it is supposed to tell us what the next day is supposed to be like, but nobody really knows what the colors MEAN.

What is this device exactly and where did you get it? Is there a pic somewhere you could link us to? *curious*

Funny comic though. I personally prefer gray days. But then I like rain... so. Yeah. :)

Maybe Greg accidentally bought a device that predicts the next day's terror alert level.

LOL, I remember this being mentioned WAY back on the RL Radio show... of course, the meanings of the lights was nowhere near what it was today, but this isn't an X-rated comic after all. :wink: :lol:

I thought everyone knew what the colors stand for...

Red means heat with a chance of Fire Elementals, Orange is clear skies (no elementals), Yellow is sand storms with a chance of Earth Elementals, Green is high winds with a chance of Wind Elementals, Blue is rain with a chance of Water Elementals, Indigo is snow with a chance of Ice Elementals, and Purple is thunderstorms with a chance of Lightning Elementals. Rarer is black, which doesn't seem to do anything (overcast?), which brings out Dark Elementals, and white, which signals aurora borealis with a chance of Light Elementals.

I prefer sort of teal days with occasional light blue breezes.

It's a Final Fantasy XI reference. Liz'll definitely get it since she's playing as a SMN (at least, I think she is - I haven't ever bothered to check, I just remember that detail from the discussion on S-E reducing the requirements for getting avatars). I'd assume that Greg would get it by proxy. You have to collect 7 lights related to weather, and the red light in that case is associated with "heat" and the element of fire.

So it would make a kind of sense for the weather predictor colors to match up with the Final Fantasy XI weather lights. Maybe.
