Any WeatherScan units still in operation?
« on: March 13, 2019, 06:32:52 PM »
Now that XFINITY has retired pretty much all of their units, I am just curious wondering if there are any still in operation from other providers.

Blue Ridge (central/east central PA) and Grande Communications (Texas) still have some units. There's also Frankfort Plant Board's Weatherscan (ehatt600 on youtube uploads videos regularly), and I believe Mediacom has a few scattered around the country.

Can confirm that the Mount Pocono unit on Blue Ridge Communications is still active.

Weatherscan is gone here in Chicago as well on XFINITY. I notice that last night.

All Xfinity weatherscans were decommissioned in late 2017.
