I love this website. Great idea. Thank you for starting it up. I am glad I found it.
ReplyDeleteI do believe as of Wednesday AM the NWS is predicting 3-6 and Paul D (specifically Todd from the Star Trib in his place) is just reporting the NWS change and advisory.
Thanks for the site feedback, Erik. According to Wunderground, my NWS source, the text forecast still says 2-4, although the more recent advisory statement does say 3-6. Wish they'd be consistent!
ReplyDeleteStumbled across your blog from your comments in Huttner's blog. I like what you have going here. I've always been curious to see who gets the forecast right.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ryan! Appreciate the feedback.
