What is a good long term weather radar prediction site?

I use Weather Underground. It checks all the boxes you want. Shows current radar with movement, and forecasts 10 days out, by the hour. Can also be customized for different conditions such as wind, humidity, etc. It uses weather stations that private individuals have set up and relays info. I have found it to be very reliable.

From what I understand, anything past 72 hours rapidly looses what accuracy they do have.

Not a weather radar weather site - BUT... Farmer's Almanac does an amazing job of predicting general weather conditions. And they do it a year in advance. How they can be so close to accurate scares me. Heck - they're usually closer than those 'meteorologist' on TV.

But, for my daily use, I use Intellicast.com

Any "radar" that is showing a target that is not really there (yet) is just showing a computer generated model...kind of silly IMO...
WX radar is a great tool but in reality it can only show you something that presently actually exists in real time...

+1 on Weather Underground. Their site went through an "upgrade" about a year ago, and it has been slower since then, and they moved the 10-day forecast to a separate tab (which I don't like), but it is still the best out there in my experience.

I tried Weather Underground, but my anti virus software kept getting hits from there, so I quite using them. I was happy with Accuweather until last month when they started asking me to open up my settings, which I refuse to do, so I'm not trying The Weather Channel. So far, I like it.

I used to use NOAA, until they added so much junk you need to go through just to get the weather. Since then I've gone to intellicast; yet sometimes I think their default plan is to check the competition's forecast then change their's to match.

I depend on weather forecasts an awful lot. I ENJOY riding my BMWR1200GSA in GOOD weather. So I have two sources I rely on - Weather Underground and on my iMac home page - High Sierra - there is a small icon - immediately to the right of Siri - that stores and will report the weather on 48 towns, I have chosen - all the way from the OR/WA border to the WA/Canada border here in Ea WA. Click on that one little icon and instantly see the current WX in all 48 towns. I really don't give a rats rear about long range - about 90% of all my riding is a dawn to dusk situation.

The title of this thread is kind of at odds with itself. How can - good, long term and prediction all be related to weather. If you need good - go stand out in your yard - what is the weather like - well that's a GOOD analysis.

Something to consider is the fact that all the WX sites use the same satellite data that are operated by the NWS / NOAA...

Also in most major markets the local TV stations invest large sums of money in state of the art radar systems...

What I like best about the NWS site is they update hourly....National Weather Service

Another thing I like about the NWS site is there are only a couple of administrative scripts running on the site(s)...unlike the majority of the commercial sites mentioned in this thread than have dozens of scripts running on their sites that do nothing but collect user information from phones or computers...
