Issue With Weather Apps…

I know many of you use them for weather forecasts as I hear feedback frequently about what they are showing.  I strongly urge caution of any forecast on any weather app beyond 2 days out.  Pretty much all weather apps are not driven by human conscience thought but rather just straight presentation of computer model data.  Always keep in mind that computer model data beyond 4-5 days is pretty much what I call fantasy land because more often than not what the models show in that time frame does not end up happening.  Every now and then it will but that is by far the exception versus the rule….especially during the winter season months.  That’s why you will see wild fluctuations on what they show in the 4+ day time frame.  Heck even Accuweather is will to present a 90 day forecast with day by day detail…it’s a complete joke.

In my opinion the best alternative to my page for Dahlonega Weather forecasts would be straight from the National Weather Service out of Peachtree City.  At least a human being is creating the forecast without regard to hype and ratings.

Any who, if there is ever a legit threat of any type of winter precip you know that I’ll be on it…once it’s a credible threat.  I leave all the hype to the news outlets because they are chasing ratings.
