Another day of clouds here. The forecast was for mostly sunny. But, so far 90 % of this day has been mostly cloudy. A theme the last 10 months. 

Just got through a cloud spoke here from the typical GL low, but it's gotten sunny again.  The afternoon is looking prime:

OTOH, New York State is cloudy...because it usually is.  They're definitely on the wrong side of the Great Lakes with the exception of LES which would probably get played out after a while.

Something I'm not observing are humans on the Accuweather TV Channel. Lately whenever I've tuned in it's been just automated graphics, even during morning and evening prime time.

Live weathercasters are pretty much obsolete at this point outside of extreme events which the news stations just cover anyway.   Everybody can look at their phone for decent real-time forecasts whenever and wherever they want nowadays.

Strongly disagree. Apps and websites featuring questionable sourced weather information abound. Local, trusted media and meteorologists are needed now more than ever. 

Take Windows 11 for example. I get push notifications for Rockville, MD for tomorrow on my work laptop that it's going to be a high of 4° degrees tomorrow. How is this even remotely accurate?
