Apple Weather's forecasts are so bad my meteorologist made a post about it - eviltoast

Apple Weather forecasts for my area have shown a 30-50% chance of precipitation for eternity, even when there isn’t a cloud in sight. My meteorologist has told his readers to ignore Apple’s forecasts.

This started around the time the Apple Weather outages a few months ago and haven’t improved. YSK that you can report inaccurate forecasts from within the app, but it hasn’t improved for me.

I’m currently using Foreca on iPhone and the free version of Carrot on Apple Watch.

    I wish there was a way to turn off predictive radar. It sometimes has the storm completely changing direction. So inaccurate.

      Yep. The storm’s going one direction consistently then as soon as the radar switches from “past” to “future” the entire storm makes a 90-degree turn.

      It’s like it takes the current radar and models average wind for the area and the storm blows off to the east even when that’s not what is currently happening. Happens every time.
