It isn't supposed to show up (for now anyways). It showed up on the first day for one of two reasons: your playlist wasn't configured correctly, or one of the essential products didn't have enough data to display, and the precip product was shown instead.

Hi, Chazz! Hope all is well. It's been very hot in the MSP metro the past day or two. Try to stay cool!

Please don't be race into this. NBC isn't going to keep Vivian just because she is black and to fill some "quota." Bring race into it again and warnings will be issued. Grow up people.

If this is the case, why hasn't Forbes taken a much needed vacation? I'm concerned that man is gonna land himself in the hospital. He hasn't had a day off since February.

He has something called a contract, which spells out when he needs to be on air, and when he can take his vacation.

Ad crawls are inputted through to the system by the headend. They are generated by the IS2 itself. As with every other STAR, not all cable companies utilize the ad crawl at all times.

Significant Weather Advisories are issued under the product name of Special Weather Statement, and yes, we do carry/send them out.

So the next time my area is under such a Special Weather Statement/Significant Weather Advisory, if I am watching TWC, I should see the alert scrolling at the bottom of the screen?

Correct.

I can safely say the next generation Weatherscan will not be in HD.

IMO that is G-rated. It was used in a quote, and was intended to show just how bad the devastation was.

How is that HD? It's not even a 16:9 aspect ratio.

I will be going to a private school for seventh grade.

By your choice, or your parents choice?

My choice....well, my parents brought it up and I agreed. It is a Christian school.

I was just wondering. Personally, I'm against anything but public schools. Instead of pumping tax payer dollars into alternative education systems, that money should be used to fund public schools. Especially with how the education system is right now.

The moon almanac appearing at :48 was indeed an error. This should be corrected as of this afternoon.
