According to Time Warner, "Each Spring and Fall, cable companies experience a technical phenomenon called 'sun outages.' For a period of about 2 weeks, the sun causes 'solar interference' to all geostationary satellite signals. As the sun's path across the sky gets lower each day, there are times when it is in a direct line behind a communication satellite that is sending signals to a receiving satellite dish here on earth. When the dish antenna is looking into the sun, the interference from the sun overrides the signals from the satellite. This is when a sun outage occurs."
