As of this morning, 24131 is back! :dance:
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

I was down partying with some friends at CalU this weekend and managed to get a few pics of the STAR down there. It's 24224 on Armstrong Cable. It serves a very large, weirdly shaped area. It goes from Latrobe in the north, down through Mt. Pleasant, south to Connellsville, and all the way east to California. The area is so large and diversely-shaped that the forecast area is called "SW Pennsylvania." It's rare to find IntelliStars with a forecast name like that anymore. The CC site was Mt. Pleasant.

Wow, yeah you don't see titles like that anymore. I know the Pocono area STAR uses the title "NE Pennsylvania" for the air quality forecast (possibly since there aren't a whole lot of AQ locations available in that area from the EPA) but not in any of the other screens (the rest Pocono Area). Thanks for sharing those pics :)

Anyone have Ocean City, MD on their Getaway Forecast? It's been "Temporarily Unavailable" on my IS's Getaway Forecast for about two weeks now.

I only get that city during the summer months.

Billy, have your 3 cities changed yet? I know mine did a couple weeks ago.
This happened to me back in April right before the switch to the summer site set.

Yeah, still on the summer set. I'd think they would be switching over to the winter set soon, right?

Maybe they replaced your IntelliStar. That would be my best guess.

I would say that too, except I thought the highest STAR ID's were in the low 28000's or so. I had no idea they go that high.
Brian, has the configuration changed? That would tell us if Tyler's hypothesis is correct.

Wow, that's a high ID. Must be a new STAR. Is the configuration still the same? When I was in my dentist's office last week (they have the same Willow Grove-based STAR), the ID was the old one, 21863.

Mine already did early on last week, I'm surprised your set has not changed yet.
