I called Dish about it during Hurricane Harvey and was condescendingly told the it was due to the cloud cover from the hurricane, unfortunately, I'm 600 miles NW of Houston and there was not a cloud in the sky.

I also noticed it was neither during commercials or computer graphics for radar.

I think Weather Nation has some hiccoughs.

It is pretty good. It shows local news, weather, traffic. Things around town etc. It also has a 60 second national segment.
It has been on the roku but Dish wasn't one of the providers.

Where did you find the Local now app since it's not in apps on U502 on my H3.

Local Now app? Maybe you just have to be in a locale where it's available...
