Weather Channel forecast

Why does the local forecast (Local on the 8s) on the Weather Channel no longer match my locality?  For the last 18 years, I have received the Crestview forecast (where I live) but suddenly I am receiving the Fort Walton Beach forecast.  Does anyone know why this has changed?

      I'll assume Cox has 2 headends:  1 at Crestview and 1 at Fort Walton Beach.

      Could you check if OP's TWC feed is coming from Crestview or Fort Walton Beach?

      I always thought TWC installed some incarnation of the Star system at the headends of providers.
