which is interesting, as i'm noticing the "within 15 minutes" level of notice on rain starting/stopping to have been close enough. the daily forecast last week said no rain even though the conditions really looked like it could at any moment. my iDevices pinged with rain starting soon even though the same apps forecast still did not suggest rain. it started raining with in "good enough" range of the app's notifications.
the update to the native weather app have all been very good over the past 2 OS updates. maybe they have integrated whatever company they purchased for good, but for my local area on the globe, it has been pretty good. i haven't traveled in a good while, so maybe my market is in the sweet spot of getting a lot of attention??? BigD in case you're wondering
