It is unknown if this segment was discontinued before the Junior was decommissioned, as no Jr's were ever found in Southern California. If it was discontinued before the Junior was decommissioned, it probably happened in 2002 along with the TWC-generated Marine Forecasts on the 4000 and XL.

Famous quotes containing the words segments, weather and/or star:
“It is not, truly speaking, the labour that is divided; but the men: divided into mere segments of men—broken into small fragments and crumbs of life, so that all the little piece of intelligence that is left in a man is not enough to make a pin, or a nail, but exhausts itself in making the point of a pin or the head of a nail.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
““Why don’t you finally publish your works?” My friend, in bad weather one had better stay home.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“...indeed, star differs from star in glory.”
—Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 15:41.
