Just discovered that my Weatherscan has had extra forecast cities added to it. Gettysburg, Hagerstown, and Hanover have been added to the pre-existing Chambersburg and Carlisle. Also, the corner radar was changed, adding Hagerstown, and removing Chambersburg, and there are now two main radars, a regional one, and a more local one.

Wow, that Hagerstown radar is way too zoomed out.  :blink: Reminds me of that statewide radar my Weatherscan used to have. IMO, they should have a local radar centered on Hagerstown for that segment, then have the regional radar for the Radar segment.

Billy mentioned that his Weatherscan recieved an update, The Atlanta Weatherscan recieved one as well. My original cities were Atlanta, Marietta, Douglasville and Dallas, now they are Atlanta, Woodstock, Alpharetta and Marietta which is more local than Douglasville and Dallas,Ga were. Also on the Local Radar segment, the radar was shifted north to include the new cities and removed Douglasville and Dallas from the maps, the radar map and the lower left hasn't changed. The new local radar looks similar to this one except it includes more cities to the north such as Rome,Ga:



It used to look like this one

Evan: Just be fortunate you don't have Rock Hill, SC's Weatherscan. :yes:

Alex: I agree. I know changes are on hold, but they could at least update the playlist. I wouldn't think it would take a whole lot of effort to do that. A lot of people ask me when they are changing the music.

I do too, but I also miss the playlist they had during the early days of the Weatherscan IS.

Here's what i sent to the weather channel regarding my plea (3 years is an estimate  :P)

Hello The Weather Channel,

Regarding Weatherscan i'm wondering if WeatherScan could get a playlist upgrade?

The same 30 or so songs have been playing over and over again for the past 3 years and i was wondering if any new music could be added anytime soon like Trammell Starks for example?

Thank you again The Weather Channel ,and i hope this problem is fixed soon.

We should be seeing spring/summer segments airing soon as they usually launch late March/early April. As of today we're still getting Ski. When I see summer segments I'll post my next clip on youtube.

Was the new Weatherscan configuration a mistake? Mines is back to the way it was before the outage Saturday.

Maybe it was a backup?

Thanks for the heads up on the possible Vers. Package, Mike. Thought when i e-mailed them they said Versailles was what went with Frankfort.
