H2O Posted yesterday at 12:54 PM Share Posted yesterday at 12:54 PM 39 here. One last leaf cleanup today and then setting a neighbors oak tree on fire. It’s still half full and I’ll be damned if I let it blow leaves over to my yard 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frd Posted yesterday at 05:29 PM Share Posted yesterday at 05:29 PM 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The afternoon is looking prime: https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/sector_band.php?sat=G16§or=ne&band=02&length=12 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted yesterday at 05:42 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 05:42 PM Clouds seem to be the only thing preventing our afternoon highs from torching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongRanger Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongRanger Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Is this a permanent change at the Accuweather channel, or did they give all their OCMs Thanksgiving Week off? BTW, windiest day here in awhile. Helped me test my refurbished anemometer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's clearly some sort of anomalous error and not representative of normal. Most people I know IRL just use their apple weather app when they check the weather, they're not going to AccuWeather.com much less listening to the local news or looking at models. I can't think of the last time any person has ever talked to me about the weather forecast they saw on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone with way too much insight in how these crappy things work, can you click on the weather and bring up the larger notification panel? See what city it is forecasting for. If you are using a VPN or your ISP gives you an IP that is registered somewhere else, the geolocation stuff isn't smart enough to figure it out. I also don't think EC is getting an inch of rain, but they really cover their bases with "up to". NWS has me .2-.5". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of my buddies simply rely on their weather app, and will be standing in the pouring rain with me insisting there is a zero percent chance of rain...

I would love to see something like American Meteorological Society or National Weather Association offer a "seal of approval" for apps that maintain things like updates, appropriate warning information, etc. Worse yet, certain apps like Operating System based platforms are largely not customizable and default to the organizational settings. All of these work to undermine the credibility of weather apps and unfairly degrade the ethos of the meteorological community. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
