AccuWeather has been begging and lobbying for this for years. They are poised to profit from this.
Wait what??? I've been using AccuWeather because I enjoyed the way they presented their weather information but knowing this I'm going to be switching immediately.
Switch to what? Private companies aren't going to do what NOAA does.
I'm a Canadian so shrug it's something I'll have to look into I suppose. Ill try to not go out of my way to support AccuWeather specifically at least knowing that info about them.
