Innovative and Interactive Coverage...

* We have worked to bring you two great new tools to keep you safe during Hurricane Dennis:

Through our friends at Baron Services, we will be using the VIPIR weather system. VIPIR is cutting edge technology used to track weather using radar, satellite, and other tools including computer modelling. VIPIR will allow us to show you 3D views of storms, lightning strikes, cloud top heights - you name it, we can do it. A great tool!

We will also be streaming our television coverage of Dennis LIVE on www.wtok.com! This will allow you to watch our coverage on your computer as well as your television!

* We will begin doing web coverage of Dennis early tomorrow afternoon, as Dennis approaches the coast. We will also be doing cut-ins intermittently on WTOK...Once the threat to our area approaches, we will be doing wall-to-wall coverage on both the website and television.

* Be sure to check out the 'blog throughout the day tomorrow. We will post a lot of information there!

* WE NEED YOUR HELP! We want you to be a part of our coverage of Dennis. You will serve as our eyes and ears out in the community. You can use the blog to ask questions or file reports starting tomorrow. We will answer your questions on our TV coverage - and pass along your storm reports to the public. Here's where you can submit your comments and questions:
