Has anyone payed attention to which site is most accurate for weather forecasts? I often notice discrepancies between Weather.com and Accuweather.com.

wunderground.com Then take all three, add them up, divide by pi, and square the result.

Is pi 3.14159265 or 3.14159256? I can never remember.

Use the first for areas in KY, the other for NC. For rocktown and other chattavegas areas, just use 3.14.

I kind of dig this NOAA site: http://www.crh.noaa.gov/radar/latest/DS ... kjkl.shtml
you can pick the satellite images, play the last few hours, and see all the crap coming. It's easy to type in Slade, KY in the upper corner and get the forcast - without any pop-ups.

I think accuweather is the best most of the time. But I like the "view history" feature of wunderground so I can see how much rain has fallen.

Solid, no matter where you're going. No pop ups, no ads, best radar and satellite.

wunderground is pretty nice too.

Walk outside... look up... if nothing hits you in the face it is either clowdy or sunny. Do this topless to gauge the temperature by the THO factor.
