Weather dotcom has premium gatekeeping and Accuweather just kinda sucks

EDIT: i just remembered not everyone is ND and doesn't get really super into every topic enough to care about things like meteorology :[

Whoa, that looks like one hell of an app.

Given the depth of information covered there is a steep learning curve if you seek to use the program in it's entirety, help information is available and touched on below.

How well versed are you in meteorology? I'm a layman but I'm definitely interested in it enough that I'd prefer to get my reports from something other than "the weather rock" 🤣

I'm a geologist. I took a meteorology class for funsies back at university.

It's also my responsibility to ensure the drill crew's safety. If a lightning storm is rolling in, we need to drop the mast on the drill rig so it's not the tallest metal object around. 💀
