I caught this Tornado Week ad a few minutes ago. This most likely is a bug. Anyone else seeing this?

Maybe TWC decided two ads are better than one!  :dunno: It could be intentional.

I got the same thing earlier on my IntelliStar 2. It's still there as of the 2:18 LF too.

Somehow that 'Tornado Week' bug wasn't showing on the IS1.

It looks like the ad bug from 2013 so I wonder if someone hit a wrong button over in Atlanta and it brought up the copy that the IS has stored from when it was last used.

TWC has found the perfect way to fill that empty blank space to the right on the HD locals...with an ad. :rolleyes:

The Tornado Week ad bug is still showing up this morning. Very, very odd.

The IS2 from Lancaster that I had gotten a few weeks ago has been replaced by our (I think) original IS unit.

So.. I'm finally getting local forecasts in HD on the bottom ticker, and the LOT8s starts off with the introduction including my city name, then they show the current conditions for my city, but right after it goes back to the national feed. Anyone else have this happen?

edit: never mind its normal now, I'm guessing they just had issues since it's the first time.

Not quite sure when exactly but FPB finally letterboxed the IS2 on the SD feed. Our old friend Intellistar #23273 looks to have seen its final forecast.
