Accuracy of various weather apps
Has anyone found one weather app to be more accurate than others? Right now I'm watching weather.com and weatherbug on my phone, and they definitely don't have the same forecasts. It's hard to say...

For my part of the country NOAA is best. Though there are none that are very accurate long range, 5 days out or more.
NOAA uses a lot more than just the EURO model. As I would suspect most of the others do as well. It's more about how they are read and interpreted. NOAA tends to be more conservative, and are usually fairly accurate.
IMO, accuweather(inaccuweather), weatherbug, the weather channel, are all about getting viewers. Ever notice how dramatic the weather channel people get when weather systems come? Weather channel is who started naming winter storms, to boost viewership.
I have had buggy issues with weatherbug and accuweather in the past with their apps. Though haven't used them in awhile.
I follow the weather very closely in my state, I am a huge snowmobiler and the sooner I know about storms the sooner I can make plans to follow the snow.
