技术故障创建双城预报员的“克隆”

“你们想要一个詹妮弗吗？还是两个詹妮弗？还是三个…？”

这就是问题所在KMSP气象学家詹妮弗·麦克德迈德（Jennifer McDermed）在2021年5月11日的预测中发现自己在对空气技术故障令人眼花gl乱的头晕目眩。

当她涵盖了一些区域性温度时，效果“接管了” - 导致信号出现放大，同时还形成了一条奇怪的幽灵痕迹，重复了一些图像，这些图像等同于1990年代由Microsoft Windows推广的Polygon Screensavers。

Everything from McDermed, wearing a sunny yellow dress, to the map behind her and even the station’s bug in the lower left began repeating itself, much to the amusement of her and others in the studio, who could apparently see the issue on their return monitors.

她设法通过一些乐趣来度过了小故障 - 因为试图传达天气信息的情况可能毫无意义。

目前尚不清楚是否存在生成图形或上游的天气计算机的问题明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗车站。

The fact that McDermed’s feed and the bug fell victim to the odd visual “effect” seems to indicate the issue may have been more than just with the graphics computer since bugs are typically inserted either by either the control room or master control and not the weather system.

Also, in theory, if the issue had been with the weather computers, it’s unlikely McDermed would have been duplicated since, in standard production setups, her image would be matted over the weather maps using chroma key technology and any glitches caused by computer in the weather center would have more likely affected only the maps behind her.
