There used to be a recorded weather forecast for New York at

They should work fine if you're calling from the NYC area. The
212-976 and 914-976 prefixes are pay per call, so long distance carriers won't connect to them. The last time I called (a long time ago) the charge was a quarter.As far as the weather is concerned, here in upstate NY we've had a lot of rain but nothing too bad. There are swampy areas that flood, and they're flooded. It's not a big deal except, I suppose, that many of the swampy areas are close to where NYC news people live.

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Well this afternoon (Saturday) Yahoo News had some really awful reports of mud slides and other nasty events on a couple of the interstates there, with a picture of a SUV (Sports Utility Van?) swept off the highway and thrown into a lagoon with the driver of same trying to evacuate and save his family, etc. That was in New Jersey. And I guess the governor of Massachusetts has declared an emergency in areas of that state, saying they had more rain in a couple days than they otherwise had all summer. PAT]
