We are a leader in the way news and information is delivered in today's electronic society. We Don’t Always Have A lot To Say But When We Do We Say A Lot!

While some have suggested that the Pendleton-Gazette should also have a printed edition it was decided that it would be an online publication only. There are several factors that went into that approach. The primary reason is that the growth of the online community. Not only has the number of people using computer to find news increased there has also been a big upswing in online activity with the

introduction of the tablet and today's Smartphones that put the web in people's pockets. Today when people are looking for news from Pendleton, Indiana via a Bing, Google, or Yahoo search, the Pendleton-Gazette is listed as one of the top places in these searches. Online usage is going to continue to grow. According to a recent survey, as of the end of 2010, more people get their news from the Internet than from newspapers. In the survey conducted by the Pew Project for Excellence in Journalism, 34% of respondents said they read news online within the past 24 hours (as opposed to 31% who favored newspapers); and a full 41% said they get most of their news online, 10% more than those who said they got most of their news from a newspaper. With today's every faster internet and cell phone speeds there is no doubt that online news services will be even more prominent in the years ahead.

Heavy Rain -Gusty Wind

Futurecast video from 8 am to 8 pm in one hour increments, could see a few showers today, details coming in the forecast. -Byron

A look at futurecast from 2 pm to 2 am Monday morning. I narrowed the timing for the best risk of seeing strong to isolated severe storms between 6 pm and midnight. Showers and thunderstorms will be scattered in nature and not everyone will see a thunderstorm this evening. We will be monitoring through the afternoon and evening hours. -Byron

Futurecast points out the heavy rain that will move through later this morning. This is from 8 am to 8 pm in one hour increments. Once that area of heavy rain moves through, we will then be looking for additional showers and thunderstorms to develop, it will be these storms that could potentially turn severe, especially south of Indy. The forecast coming up next! -Byron

Here is futurecast from 9 am to 9 pm in one hour increments. -Byron

Here's a look at futurecast from 7 am to 7 pm today. Showers and embedded storms early this morning, then by the afternoon hours, could see some scattered showers and storms develop. The forecast is next! -Byron
