Weather On Demand & Weather Channel

[dlluce]

Weather On Demand - It is 2:30 Friday and the vido is from Thursday Evening.  This is often the case that Weather On Demand is not completely up to date.  I love the feature of finding weather in various locations, but out of date does not help!

Weather Channel - Give us the real Local on the 8's!!  With Comcast, it was for my local area.  With U-verse, we get the generical regional postings - which isn't local.  Local should be local and especially when watching for storms coming.  As a prior Comcast customer, this is one of the features I miss the most!

Update:  4pm same day, weather alert pops up on TV for sever thunderstorms.  Fine...great even.  But the button choices are to close the alert or go to Weather On Demand!!  Chose Weather On Demand hoping it was updated - but NO.  Still last night's video, and radar was a couple hours old.  Weather On Demand is USELESS regarding alters and could give people a false sense of security seeing radar images that are old and show no storms.

Unfortunately Chris that is a lame alternative to LOT8's.  This is one area where AT&T doesn't get it (or gets it but doesn't care enough to execute).

I agree. I had Time Warner and they always had the local on the 8's with weather alerts if there were any. The U-Bar weather is a joke

With U-verse, weather alerts will appear on your screen regardless of which channel you are viewing at the time.  No need to be tuned to the Weather Channel.

Also, why depend on LOT8's and waiting 10 minutes to see local weather information?  If there is a weather emergency in your area, the best source of information will be your local broadcast channels.
