Local Forecast / Re: General LF Discussion

At least it looks a little better than it did back when it first started. Our IS2 is down still (for a month) so I don't know what it looks like on the HD version.

It didn't last long. About two hours after it booted up and loaded in all the data it went out again. It's been out since Monday. :/

I called Cox this morning about it and they said all of Kansas and Arkansas are having problems for the past 3 weeks. Our IS2 just now came back on with NO DATA for everything. So I'm assuming it's all loading in and everything will be back up and running soon. Thanks!

Just found out that the IS2 doesn't narrate "Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday", instead Jim just says, "Our local forecast".

It didn't last year, either.

Does Health not come on during winter anymore? All we have is Airports and Travel for our additional segments. Health was on last winter, just without the allergies screen.

The HD star. It was out most of last week, I've been in Kansas City the entire weekend so I don't know if it ever came on during that time. I looked when I got home a couple hours ago and it wasn't coming on. So I'm assuming the HD Star has been out the entire weekend. I even contacted Cox Kansas via Facebook a couple times telling them there hasn't been a local forecast on TWC HD and they never responded for some reason.
Weatherscan has been working fine since before I left on Friday evening, BTW.

Thanks!

Edit: Monday morning it's working, but I'm expecting it to go back out this evening as it usually does.
Edit: ...and it's out. About 10:30am it started flashing colors fast every time the LOT8's came on, then it would cut to the national feed, then come back fine, then cut back out. Now it's just out completely. Took video of it flashing earlier. Could post if you want.

Our IS2 is still out. Now our Weatherscan is doing the "jumping" it was several months ago. Like it's running on an old computer and it can't catch up to itself. The ticker is especially bad but some of the maps like radar on the legend will do a weird scratchy type action. (Have no idea how to describe it.)

Our IS2 is back up as of about 12:30am last night... the normal time it comes back for whatever reason.

Downloaded it the day it came out. Couldn't read the taskbar temperature and hated that it wouldn't just minimize on startup so went back to older version.

It was working the past couple days (I think it's been a couple days.) This morning it is out again. It has not come on since I woke up about 6am. (3 hours ago)

The IS2 for Topeka, KS on Cox Cable has been completely out since early Saturday afternoon.

Edit: Tried deleting this post but it wouldn't let me. Our IS2 is back up at 12:28am Monday.

Edit 2: As of 7am Monday morning it is not on at all again.

Edit 3: As of 12:20am Tuesday morning our IS2 is back up and running and is still up at 9am. Got a frozen picture for almost a minute then at 12:28am it cued as normal.
