Their down to the minute precipitation messages always made me think of Back to the Future II. 'Too bad the postal service isnt as reliable as the weather service! '

And yet still, I believe that 99.9% of their search requests are from people searching for Google.

Agreed - the new Apple weather app accuracy is terrible. Appreciate we’re all taking a moment to appreciate the work of art the dark sky app was.

What new species of burrowing spider did they discover today? The one who ate Mike the pipelayer whole. He's gone. Devoured along with his work truck.

As a bicycle commuter, it was well worth the subscription.
Czech Republic had a great national weather service app like this years ago, I think it was called Meteo, but of course it was only for national weather data.

That's about what I expected but thanks! 14% of market share in China would push their numbers enormously!

Would be nice to see the map of such pipes in conflicting regions.

And there might be more! These here are probably the transmission lines and not distribution or gathering limes which can increase the mileage significantly

When Apple bought them out I noticed the forecast quality took a dive. It used to be accurate within a minute or two for rain and within a couple degrees for temperature but then it just started being wrong to the point I stopped trusting it.

It just didn’t do it for me. The notifications weren’t accurate, weather sources varied greatly, the radar was off, the crowdsourcing data is difficult, the subscription was outrageous
