I am taking a vacation next week and wanted to check the weather so that I am prepared and pack the right clothes. However, after checking 3 online weather sites, I am simply frustrated and confused. One says sun, the other rain, and another list temperatures which are 10 degrees higher than the other two. Where can I find the most accurate weather reports online? | |

No weather forecast is going to be 100% accurate all the time, as I'm sure you know, but the National Weather Service is usually more reliable than the local television station or commercial services. You can check that out here: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/ |

Ok. But I noticed it only lists a few cities for California for example. Thanks for your help... |

I just found your question. You might want to check http://www.forecastadvisor.com It is a free service of the weather forecast accuracy and validation company I founded, ForecastWatch (http://www.forecastwatch.com). There are many ways to measure accuracy, but ForecastAdvisor looks at one- to three-day out high and low temperature forecasts as well as precipitation forecasts. Here is the direct link to Truckee, CA: http://www.forecastadvisor.com/California/Truckee/96162 ForecastAdvisor verifies forecast accuracy against over 800 U.S. locations, and currently validates forecasts from Accuweather (http://www.accuweather.com), CustomWeather (http://www.myforecast.com), Intellicast (http://www.intellicast.com), The Weather Channel (http://www.weather.com), and the National Weather Service (http://www.weather.gov). Hope this helps! |

That's pretty cool! Do you measure your site's accuracy as well? |
