Wow, messed up Almanac on the 4:28 PM EDT LF!

[Robert]

Does anyone know how the XL and other units are or if they are changing? I'm sure they also need to queue when the IS does as well.

My XL shows the CC screen on all :08, :18, :28, :38, :48, and :58, but some are shorten to 1 minute. I really don't see what's so bad about this, didn't the 3000, and 4000 units have these type of short flavors in the 90s?

Either TWC listened, or perhaps the :08/:38 LFs are one minute long outside of the AM/PM Rush?

Wow, messed up Almanac on the 4:28 PM EDT LF!

What about it was messed up?

Speaking of Almanacs, the one with the Moon Phases has suddenly returned on my IntelliStar since this new flavor lineup started up nationally, I haven't seen it in over a year!

We're still getting the temperature almanac here.

I'm getting both the moon and temperature one, I saw the temperature one at 3:58pm edt and the moon one at 4:08pm edt, I was very surprised to it again.

Sorry for the double posting, but the almanac appears fine now. Now that I look at my clip again, it looks to me like the almanac just did not transition in properly.

BTW, are the flavors returning to normal now?

The thing that irritates me is the forecasts are shrunk to 1 min to allow ad inserts to take up most of the time before and after the Local forecast

Which a J Flavor if they could make one should take the ads' place

Same here, and agreed. 1 Minutes LF flavor is

The local forecast at 4:38 ET started with the local obs, and there was only a 36-hour forecast instead of 48. Other than that, it was pretty much like how it was before 10AM this morning.

[Localonthe8s]

At least it's normal for now. I hope this is only an early morning thing..I don't want this to take place for the rest of the lfs. I don't mind if they changed the flavours but there's no need to further shrink the LF's duration.

I believe there was some Trammel playing during the 4:48 and 4:58 ET LFs!

Yep! Also, here is my video of the errors at 4:28 PM EDT:

Notice a few things here:
-The wintry precip indicators have been turned on
-The clouds are frozen on the sat/rad product, with 3 frames for the radar portion of it.
-The almanac does not transition completely in, and looks funny.

Here is the 4:48 PM EDT Trammell Outage:
