I really like the idea, but the data quality for my city (Trondheim, Norway) was unfortunately too off for me to use.
The national forecast service (yr.no) is saying it will be sunny and very hot all through the weekend, while wttr reports it will be 16-19 degrees Celcius and rain on saturday.
- lnenad 1y agoYr is generally very accurate. I am from Serbia and I use it as well.
- incognito124 1y ago+1 for yrno, I'm a long time user. Their prediction got a bit worse over the last 2-3 years (like error variance is now larger), but anecdotally other providers' predictions got even more bad
- lioeters 1y agoYears ago I was recommended yr.no for weather forecasts, and I visit it often. I wonder what's special about Norway's meteorologists that they have exceptionally good quality data and ability to build and run a useful public service.
- extraduder_ire 1y agoIt's likely just the latter, since most meteorological organisations across Europe have data sharing agreements.
- obfuscator 1y agoyr.no is the best for my location (northern Germany) as well. Many locals use DWD (German Weather Service). A lot of the German sailors use dmi.dk (Danish meteorological institute). A lot of the Danish sailors use yr.no :)
