I like to look up the local television station online for the area that I will be visiting. I think the local meteorologists are going to understand the normal trends more and have more at stake to get it right.

It usually doesn't take long to look up all 4 of the locals and see what they each have to say.

I've been finding weather.com to be pretty accurate for my zip code. I can pretty much tell from the doppler radar whether there's something going to hit my area and almost just when it will hit (ie., most times if somethings in Fredericksburg, within an hour I will be getting it). Pretty much refuse to listen to the ratings grabbers/doom predictors on television, who manage to stand right in front of the doppler radar picture for my area!

Why would you want to use a spyware infested program/website to view the weather? Try www.weather.gov instead. That is the NWS website.

I the spyware infested stuff is a long stretch. I keep my computers in top running condition using the best anti-virus/malware/anti-spyware programs out there and have never been infected by Weatherbug. Plus, the radar is far more accurate than anything else I have ever used.
