Now, this wasn't Allen Jackson, but you know the lady who does the Weatherscan narration (I don't recall her name at the moment)? Well, I asked her to do some simple weather narration for me about two years ago (like, "Your current conditions," etc), and she said she couldn't due to a contractual agreement with TWC (which stated she wasn't allowed to do any other weather-related narrations for other clients while under contract). But, good luck!

I'm not too surprised by that and btw her name is Amy Bergeron.

I dont plan on getting full narration of the forecasts, just narration for the current conditions, forecasts titles such as "Tonight" and "Tomorrow", weather warnings, and UV information.

UV would be something like, "Today's (or "Tomorrow's) UV level is, High."

If Weathercaster is passed by the CRTC, would you offer us free KSMI fries? :P
