I found it pretty good. The only things that I really didn't like is that the Intellistar still looks like a pile of **** thrown together at the last minute. Also, the thing that bugs me for some reason is that when they switch OCMs during a forcecast, they talk for like 30 seconds before they switch to the other one. Whatever happened to "Alright that's a look at your forecast and here's Mike to talk about the severe storms?"

And Nick Walker really isn't a WC guy either.  :sleeping:
The Intellistar did not change with the HD launch... ;).  The only thing that did was the LDL, which I find cool :biggrin:

I think it could of been better... Nice to see some change though.

Maybe it's the fact that I still have XL...

Could you stream it your WeatherSTAR XL?

I don't want to get anymore off topic... I'm sorry if I am going too off topic, but here's a vid I uploaded a few months ago about the 2008 blizzard with the XL...



It also includes the blizzard icon...
