Just checked Accuweather site well have to see. I generally dont use them at all. Most of their snow predictions are way off. I usually pay close attention to weather due to snowmobiling and doing everything outside and find that Weather.com is the most accurate site for any type of weather but thats just my opinion. Tabbit is Sat as well not sure if your thinking its Sun.

Go Ugly Early

There's a quite a few good weather sites. I don't like accuweather either. I just have contacts with the meteorologists.
I still think the NWS is pretty good with the bigger models.
Weather.com has good stuff, they are good meteorologists and have local contacts to make good pointcasts

Still thinking though we are getting more friday night, not sure how much of a wrap of Artic air we are going to get, it's changed significantly over the 3 model runs today and will again before Friday.

The storm track for Tuesday is close to what the models show for Friday, but a little farther offshore and a good 168 hours out.

i disagree

weather dot com changes as often as the wind
their ten day forecast is a friggan JOKE

first its a week of rain then the next day all sunshine all week
then it sometimes changes back it's Insanity over there

they'll throw anything up on that chart
just to keep their advertisers happy IMHO

they are accurate sometimes on temperature
with- in a few degrees
but they are environmentally challenged

best bet....step outside Heh heh
or ask Bill (aka Striperman36)
