Weather app is gone

what happened to the weather app? Local now is good if you catch it when they are doing weather. But you might get someone talking. Years ago they took away weatherscan and now we get no local weather.

Hi, thanks for reaching out today @user_5b0fd4 I can certainly understand your concern regarding the recent changes to our apps. We regularly review those apps and sometimes make changes to ensure we're offering a wide variety  that meets our customers needs. We look at a variety of factors, including customer viewership and costs when making these decisions. The decision made there was due to the use of the application.

@XfinityJohnG​  this is just not true. it's all about advertising dollars that did not exist on that app  and now you eliminated the one choice I still had in my comcast viewing the right to not have to watch television to see m local weather.

I could tell its days were numbered when a while back (a year or so?) they made it so it took a loooong time to load.  Something about saving bandwidth because it was always loaded in the background (what a customer service rep told me).  Now it's gone because people don't use it?  It seems like they intentionally made people not use it as much when they made the load times so long.  But hey...there's still plenty of apps on there that I have no use for whatsoever!
