The Pittsburgh Verizon FiOS head-end has now added Washington and Gibsonia to Weatherscan. And I thought that Verizon has abandoned Weatherscan altogether. :club:
Verizon has added cities to its Weatherscan's nationwide.

I really like how the L-bar cities change now too, makes people get their forecasts even quicker than before.

I wonder if there was a way to allow multiple CC's to show on WeatherScan

like a rotation of 4 Current Conditions Cities on the WeatherScan headend to show right here: Brockton, Taunton, Waltham, Barnstable in this area pictured.

Even the LA one? That one already had a lot of cities as it is, then again the elevations there vary a lot.

Considering we haven't had winter weather at all this season, and our extended forecast is now ending in the 80's... might as well be switched over to summer packages across most of the country at this point. Our pollen screen is already showing with 107 being todays pollen count. Ugh. No wonder I'm sneezing so much today. When do they usually start switching packages over to summer? I know it's a headend to headend basis.

Late March/early April.

Our Health segment is still showing winter safety tips, even though we've been switched over to the spring/summer packages. :dunno:

They are usually changed around April 15th or so.

I've been getting no report on the allergy report on the health segment pretty much since last year during the spring/summer months. Should I report this to the STAR team?

That screen was unavailable on the Richmond, VA FiOS Weatherscan last July too
