Unusual XL Flavor?
« on: May 05, 2010, 07:11:41 AM »
A few days ago I saw a flavor on the Weatherstar XL that I had never seen before. It started with the current conditions, then a bulletin for a severe thunderstorm watch, then the daypart forecast, the 7-day extended forecast, and finally the radar, which had about 10 loops instead of the normal 4. Is this a severe weather flavor for the XL? It reminded me of the one for the 4000.

What's the big deal? :unsure: The XL always airs the radar at the end on a 1:00 flavor. :wacko:

This sounds like the traditional one minute flavor on the XL with a bulletin. I caught it up in Grayling last May.
