eeneR 3 #3 September 17, 2004 I go buy which ever forecast i like better Actually, i used to be a big fan of accuweather, as they had listed the ceiling as well as the gusts...but you have to pay for that now She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhillyKev 0 #12 September 17, 2004 I've found http://www.wunderground.com to be extremely accurate. I found it when I was a student and got sick of going to the dz and sitting around because the wind was too high. They have pretty good wind predictions and the rest of their forecasts seem to be a zillion times better than anyone elses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MWGemini 0 #13 September 17, 2004 I like www.weather.com, www.skydivingweather.com, and www.weathertap.com. I have not used AccuWeather, never even heard of it, actually, but the above three do very well. WeatherTap charges a small monthly fee, however.

brits17 0 #18 September 18, 2004 I've politely coined the first option as "inaccuweather.com." at least for winds (general speed and direction) i've found weather.com to be better. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
