Weather apps. IMHO have never been that reliable in the rural areas like where I live. As the apps draw information from more populated areas, they don’t record the trends as well. General information is usually ok, like if a wide spread storm approaches but the nuances of micro climates are not picked up.
Apparently it’s getting less accurate even in the cities- https://www.dailydot.com/news/weather-apps-doge-cuts/?link_source=ta_first_comment&taid=687ab5ee8a05b50001537f5b&utm_medium=organic-social&utm_source=fb-dd&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR7OLW2R63LiNlIJ_cOrj6NZaZmSEKxSOo8e7C9hcctUnWmDSgDb0jA64KFi8A_aem_Fg_rtSdPiGI51J-NC7unJg
This sounds like an opinion piece and I don’t know if they did any actual number crunching but it’s interesting that I’ve been saying the same thing for a while.
Whether that has to do with the current destructive anti-science politics ongoing currently or climate change making the usual computer models to not predict as well, I don’t know. Maybe both.
But yet another reason to keep track of your own local weather with your own measurements. I feel this information will be valuable once trump and project 2025 has been 86’d and sanity and intelligence has returned. The data purged by the circus clowns will leave a hole that citizens can help fill.
