I really wish Weatherscan was available in the more basic cable tiers. Why is it always available on the more- expensive -digital tier? Viewership would increase that way IMO.

Because viewership had dropped in recent years, resulting them in moving it to higher tiers (most areas you need Digital Classic to view it). Still, I find it odd how I have Weatherscan on analog basic, but not digital basic. You would think they'd have it on digital basic too if you can view it on analog.

For those who may not have seen the IntelliStar version of the Thundersnow icon, here it is! I recorded this during the March 1st, 2009 Snowstorm in a HiRad Outage, My backup location is the airport, which is where he observation came from.

Thats cool, but the new intellistar icons make it look like rain, the old icons were better!

Anyway if I remember correctly there were two early XL versions of weatherscan and I was wondering if v.2 had an air quality forecast anywhere in the segments.

I looked at the old product guide and there didn't seem to be such a feature. It was likely introduced with the launch of the IntelliStar Weatherscan product in 2003.

I wtf'ed.

I got me a TV Listing app for my iPhone. After setup, I scroll through to see the listings. I hit channel 116..and...it's Weatherscan. I don't have digital cable, so I can't confirm it, but Comcast's site doesn't list it...

No new locals here but WUWA ad is there

I think i'm going to ask FPB to put Travel and Airport and possibly new Forecast packages for a Legitimate reason... The Summer travel Season.
