In winter I want to know if it's going to be good enough to go out on the bike or if it's going to be cold and wet in which case I'll drive instead (yeah I know better clothing blah blah). There is a case for knowing the weather forecast for my current location.
Yes, of course - some people need very local predictions. But I live in Florida. Snow is not an issue. I want to know if this afternoon's thunderstorm is going to cross where I'm driving, and I want to know what's up with cloud formation in the eastern Atlantic. The temperature's gonna be the same in all three places: Too Damn Hot.
