Finally, 22840's forecast title was changed to "Greater Lansing" after over 3 years of "Lansing Area". However, 22842, the STAR I put more emphasis on having the forecast title changed to be one that includes all areas served by it, has not been changed. It still remains "East Lansing", and I have no idea why.

My IntelliStar is back! (22204) Looks like Tyler was right, my STAR was probably unavailable after the 48 hr. IntelliStar outage I experienced this weekend and the just gave me the next closest STAR.

If the cable headend requested the title be East Lansing, then TWC can't change it no matter what.

Well, I need the STAR team to tell me that for sure, because I notice you are speaking hypothetically.

I caught the newest updated record temp forecast
Is that just a capture from before the title and graphic had time to fade in?

At 1:41-1:42, I have never see the narration said "Record high temperature expected" before.

Wow, interesting. I have only heard "near record high temperatures" here.

Looks like you're just getting the wrong unit. Your default unit may be temporarily out of service, so you are seeing this unit in place of your normal one.
Is this also why I'm receiving 21865 instead of 21872? I've been receiving the wrong STAR for more than a month and Comcast seems clueless as to why this is occuring, as with the STAR team. According to both, 21872 is working fine so my headend just seems to be pulling the wrong IntelliStar feed (after TWC froze back on 9/11). I really want my right intellistar back, and would appreciate any help on doing so.

Well, in your case, since Comcast reports the STAR is operating properly, then maybe they changed where your feed comes from.

Well, they should probably reconfigure 21865 a little then, as it doesn't serve my area all that well
