For years I have used NOAA. Yet it seems like they read what other sites say, then change their forecast. I get tired of reading one thing, then talking to somebody who tells me an altogether different forecast which turns out to be right.

Pretty sure everyone gets their base data from NWS, which is part of NOAA.
I'm sure the play with models and change bits here and there to make it their own prediction...

I'm used to WU so generally look at it for my predictions. It's usually wrong, but in a predicable way for me - calls for more rain than we get and warmer than we get, but I'm used to the look of the tables so I can easily digest it and adjust.

Thank you. I had tried them via my search engine but because I have my location blocked, it would only give me weather for New York. Using your link I see that we are going to get snow tomorrow. Guess I'll go make sure that I have everything under cover. 👍

I use weather.com (the weather channel) and accuweather.com. They seldom agree but an average of the two comes out fairly close to the actual weather.

I’ve been using weatherbug. The storm forecasts come from NWS for storms, and are usually pretty accurate.

It seems to me that Weather Underground is one of the less inaccurate ones,
you can localize it in the drop down tab (light blue) under there name and actually pick local reporting stations for you local for the current conditions,
