Local Forecast Error 1997
A local forecast segment aired on The Weather Channel in 1997. This cable system’s WeatherStar unit malfunctions and viewers instead see the national feed. Music is by Trammell Starks. All copyrights of respective holders acknowledged.

That’s funny to see. Our Intellistar glitched up and had brief cuts between the national and local forecasts.

I thought those national extended forecast screens were used only for the old Extended Travel Forecast segment.
I’m guessing it was also used for the raw satellite feed of the local forecast segment.
