Weather Predicting Reliability
I always wondered now reliable all of the different weather predicting services are. When I look at Weather.com, it’s often quite different from NOAA and local news stations.
When I heard that the NOAAstarted publishing weather data in xml, I started thinking. It would be interesting to query the different services and their weather predictions, and store it all in a database. Then at the end of the day, query the NOAAdata for the current day, to get the actual weather. It would then be possible to perform an analysis to see who is the most consistent and correct most often.
If only I had to time to work on some fun projects…
