On the IntelliStar, when Windy Conditions reported, the Windy icon doesn't display in any of the Current Conditions products, like Sunny and Windy, and Partly Cloudy and Windy, and Cloudy and Windy, but I hope in the future, Sunny and Windy icon, and Partly Cloudy and Windy, and Cloudy and Windy icon might be reported in any of the Current Conditions products, as well as the regular Windy icon when reported as "Fair and Windy", and "Mostly Cloudy and Windy".

In the early years, when the wet snow is expected during the "Text-based Local Forecast", Vocal Local used to read that text that's used for wet snow, but he doesn't read that text anymore. For example "1 to 3 inches of wet snow expected".

During the "Text-paged Local Forecast" on the IntelliStar, notice on the next day (I.E. on Tuesday), the text say "Partly cloudy skies", but the Vocal Local mistakenly say "Mainly sunny", and usually the nighttime, the text say "A few passing clouds", but generally the Vocal Local say the reading, but eventually he says "A few passing clouds, otherwise generally clear".

Notice when there's more Snow expected during the Winter Season, the text might say "Potential Winter Weather expected (name of the day), Additional details available now on weather.com".

Notice last time during the Winter Season, when visiting weather.com/multimedia, and if you click on any Midwest City such as Flint, MI, notice the Vocal Local narration doesn't say the temperatures that say zero degree or temperatures below zero on the Current Conditions video page. He says "Currently the temperature is..." then skipped to the sky conditions when temperature reaches 0 or below.
