@daringfireball To me it feels like we reached peak accuracy a few years ago. I don’t know about where your but at least with precipitation here in Boston has been very inaccurate. My guess is with the climate changing all the weather models are starting to break.

@christopherbowers @daringfireball THIS!
I’m behind on my DF reading but I had to respond to this because accuracy is plummeting in New England right now.

Case in point: yesterday’s rain was scheduled to make way to clouds and maybe wind this afternoon as recently as this morning. Now? Who tf knows when the wintry mix will end?

I’m worried it never will.

A year after Dark Sky and for about two years, accuracy was phenomenal. Then it started to falter. Then Apple bought it.
