XL current conditions question
« on: October 10, 2010, 11:24:14 AM »
Hey,

I always wondered how the XL displayed the current conditions. I've watched plenty of XL videos but I havent seen any with more uncommon conditions such as sleet, rain/snow, etc. I guess i'm asking what the conditions displayed were. Like did it display "rain/snow" or "rain and snow" etc. I dont know if you guys would know about this but just thought i'd ask just in case. Thanks :happy:

Why couldn't you? I don't think it would violate TWC's policy..

Years ago when we had the first version of the XL here (this was a good decade ago), it said "Rain/Snow".  Today, I have no idea.

Why wouldn't you be able to discuss something that is broadcast to the general public?

Shh... are you sure we're even allowed to discuss the existence on the-network-that-must-not-be-named at all?
