What happens here

The forecast transitions to 'Latest Observations' for several Midwestern cities including Chicago, Cincinnati, Detroit, Indianapolis, Madison, Milwaukee, Peoria, and St. Louis, again with retro graphics and the characteristic voiceover. This is followed by a 'Local Forecast' screen for Chicago, detailing an evening of showers, steady rain overnight, potential for heavy rainfall, low temperature of 37°F, wind speed of E at 10 to 20 mph, and a 90% chance of rain with about a half-inch rainfall. The user expresses nostalgic feelings about his childhood memories 'roaring back'.

Goal: Experience various 90s-style weather forecast segments.
