very sneaky, weather.com

check out these random links in the 10-day forecast on weather.com.
very random. they link to in-house weather.com pages talking about hybrid cars and green driving (oxymoron). i have no idea why, but i guess they got me to click on it. twice.
in related useless info, did you know i check the weather from 4 different sources continuously throughout the day? i have weatherbug and accuweather widgets on my mac dashboard, a bookmark for weather.com’s hourly forecast, and some terrible “the weather network” app on my blackberry.
if anyone cares, i like weather.com the best, but most likely b/c i’ve used it the longest. my BB app is by far the least accurate.
From my many years of couch-bound meteorological study, I agree with you that weather.com is the most authoritative source. But TV is even better. I miss the jazz music that accompanied local on the 8s. Dr. Steve Lyons in the Hurricane Center is awesome! He can be seen every 50 minutes after the hour, as well as at the top and bottom of the hour on Weather Center when there is a big hurricane.
WEATHER.GOV!!! Add the national weather service to your list. Most people, once they see the site, think I’m crazy, but I live by weather.gov
