I have been using Windy.com since someone here had suggested it.
Will check this out. Thanks.

How is this more useful than the basic weather sites?

For someone that's content with basic weather, it's probably not. For folks that are interested in more than the basic weather, it's probably very useful.

I'll dick around with this site (thanks Rusty) and if it is better than Windy I'll shift my usage. I am a complete weather geek, btw, so more is better.

For the phone, I like the "MyRadar" app. A few bucks gets you the "no ads" version with everything you could possibly want. Worth checking out the free version at least, IMO. YMMV.

I also use Windy, especially when we've got a good storm going. I like to look at the swell size off in the Atlantic and be thankful my feet are on dry land

I bet the surfers would appreciate the wave count and wave height features!

What is an example of more than basic weather that I need?

A looksee out the window is a basic weather forecast. An interest in more involved weather includes rain or no rain, sun/clouds ratio and temp.
The ulitmate most basic 'Weather' for most people is the hottie on local TV just before high school sports. |

Windy is ok.
I use Radarscope for storm tracking. I think it is 9.99 a year for the pro version. |
