I think the Getaway Forecast is useless all along. I mean probably 45% of people here actually visit and are concerned about the weather in the cities in the getaway forecast.

It's not going anywhere. The segment involves sponsored locations and TWC makes money out of them. Though, I wish it had a lower priority level, as the almanac, daypart, and metro forecasts are more useful IMO.

I miss the metro forecasts. I use to see them all the time back when i was in NY.

Then why don't you come over here and watch my intellistar. It shows the metro map in every LF.

Why do you like the metro forecast so much? I think it's pretty pointless.

I'm not sure to be honest. I just want an IntelliStar over the satellite local forecast. I LOVE locality.  My dad might be switching us to cable next week, DirecTV costs too much money for us. I don't like Comcast though.

When I get Fios, I'll be switching to it in a heartbeat.

[LFMusicFan]

How funny, because I would prefer satellite over the intellistar. It's mainly for the music though.

[Localonthe8s]

I want cable but with a narrationless star like a Junior or a 4000. I can listen to music and get local weather info at the same time.

FiOS? They aren't nearly as local as other companies. I believe A.C. viewers get the forecast for Newark (80+ miles away). 

That's the main reason why I refuse to switch to FiOS (I know, odd reason), but my parents really want to switch so I don't know what to do. I don't want to tell them that I don't want FiOS just because I'm getting a forecast for a city that's more than 20 miles away.

Really? No weather for AC?

Still, they HAVE WEATHERSCAN! Comcast got rid of it i believe. I want it for weatherscan plus I like to see the whacky flavors of the intellistar that fios viewers get.

Do you have Fios in your area, Mike?

[Mike M]

Yeah, FiOS has been available here in Bensalem for about two years and will soon be available in my other house.

[Localonthe8s]

Oh that's cool! I thought you meant Marlton. I wish it would come to Atlantic City. IDK when.

The problem with their Weatherscans is that there are forecasts for so many cities that some headends don't have the lifestyles packages (not even Travel and Airport!). I enjoy seeing those lifestyle segments and would miss them if we switch (another con for fios).

[Localonthe8s]

I love the Travel and Airport segments. I also miss the Gardening segment I am not sure if we still have that. Haven't watched Weatherscan in 3 years.
