It looks more like Hit The Road than Interstate, to me.

Weatherscans font is called Frutiger. As for Hit the Road TWC would never use that exact font

Was just coming on to see if anybody else noticed that it was larger today. I like it. A couple of our cities changed too, I think. I was watching at my moms yesterday and about 1pm everything but the bottom scroll went black and then it popped back up with the severe weather mode template but no information except the bottom ticker. Happened for about 4 seconds and came back up in normal operation mode.

Our lower left corner mini-radar is gone now. When the main screen radar came on it popped off and hasn't come back on. Now our main screen radar is saying Temp Unavailable. Wonder what they're doing? Anybody else getting this?

Perhaps it had something to do with that "jumping" thing the radar was doing since last week?

Maybe, The Radar/Satellite rebooted also so that might be the case.

The "old" Weatherscan that is in the upper left corner is Frutiger. The L-bar is all Interstate.

Dish has been internally testing Weatherscan, and requested the font on the crawl be easier to read. The solution to that was to change from Interstate Condensed to Interstate Bold.

It's a good change. :thumbsup:

IMO, the whole channel should be in one font or the other. It looks rather awkward how it is now, especially when both the corner radar and main radar are seen at once.

Can someone post a picture please? Until tomorrow, I'm not able to view Weatherscan until I get a new cable box since my HDTV is on the fritz.
