This week, a Rockford meteorologist experienced a situation we can all relate to.

On July 5, 2003 Rockford was ridden with wind damage and WIFR completely went off the air for months.

If you've recently received a text from Western Union telling you that you've got some money waiting for you (along with a link to click on to get the cash), you're more than likely a potential scam victim. Don't click the link.

Moral of the story: If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

The video posted a few weeks ago of Rockford in 1949 was such a hit, I thought you might enjoy another trip back in time.
