  • What weather service do you use?

    I have been using WeatherUnderground for a while. I like the way you can view the weather by the hour with cute little pictures that represent the weather. It's now easy to determine when the best time for a walk is, and I can know if it's going to rain at 7pm and come home before I get wet. Somehow the internet gets the weather right more often than the weather channel and the TV forecasters, although I suspect that they all use the same sources.


    There's all kinds of information to search, but mostly I like to know when the rain is going to stop!

    Well, the reason for posting here was to see what service other people use. I'm not loyal to WU, so I'd like to see what else is recommended.
    May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

    Brother Nobar, I'm a seventy-six-year-old man. Counting fiber grams until I reach my quota is a big part of my day, and I find this thread boring.

      Good heavens. OK, I can answer any reasonable question so I'll take this one on. You can't know if it is going to rain at 7pm any more than you can know if a serial killer with a machete just got out of a car up the street and will hack the first person he meets on the sidewalk.

      Plug the local NOAA radar into your cellphone and you can see moderate rain approaching within a few minutes of real time. In Hawaii it's easy. It is going to rain in a few minutes, then clear up, then rain, then clear up.

        Into one 16 ounce bottle of water, funnel two tablespoons of unflavored psyllium husks, clap your hand over the mouth of the bottle and shake very hard for eight seconds. Then glug it down. You have just about ten seconds to get it all down before it coagulates in the bottle or in your mouth and throat.

        If you EVER intend to use that bottle again, start rinsing it immediately and make SURE you get any spilled psyllium off the sink or it will be there for generations.

        Glad to help!

                  I use the only weather service anyone needs. Prayer.

                      This all sounds a little too demonic for me.
                      Although, I suppose Noah must have known the forecast before he built that ark and rounded up a male and female of every living species and loaded them onboard.

                        Amen Mrs. Roberts. All this predicting... sounds a bit like witchcraft to me. But you can't stone the weather anchor on your TV set, as I have found out recently.

                        Jesus will decide on what weather it will be, period. If He fancies a tsunami, a tsunami it is. (although He probably wouldn't use that nip word of course).

                        Currently, and in the last 46 years of my life, He goes for rain a lot, it seems. Glory!
                        Psalm 81:10:
                        I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt:
                        open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
