Howdy! Daryl,

The WX conditions at the airport is very important to the pilots who
bring travelers to and from the airport.

It also is handy for the next shift of weathermen who are preparing to
come to work to know the conditions at the airport.

I notice that the WX Radio Broadcasts that I listen to has the
Conditions at both of the local airports in its hourly broadcasts.

Sometimes there is a slight difference given for the Temperature, Wind
or the Air Pressure at the two airports.

I notice sometimes the computerized voice that I hear on the WX
Broadcasts will mis-pronounce some of the words entered in its Data
Bank.

Here the female voice says words correctly but the male voice will
garble some of the words it says.

One of those words is "Floyd" which is the County that my QTH is at.

The Data that the male voice is suppose to read could probably be
corrected by typing the word Floyd in the Data Bank in a slightly
different way than the normal spelling for the word.

Do You hear any mispronounced words when You listen to the WX Broadcast
on Your WX Radio there?
