Local insertion on cable television is used especially on The Weather Channel in the U.S. and The Weather Network/MétéoMédia in Canada, where systems like the WeatherSTAR, IntelliSTAR and PMX have been used to show local weather forecasts (known as "Local on the 8s" on The Weather Channel in the U.S.) every ten minutes, and well as the lower display line (LDL) or lower-third graphic that is shown at other times.
