Accuweather is one of those great American scams! They use lots (if not all) data generated by NOAA a governmental institution that created and deployed many weather and meteorological tools. We, the American people paid to build NOAA and the National Weather Service and Accuweather uses their data and tools to “create” their content. Without the National Weather Service and NOAA Accuweather would have never existed. Read “The Fifth Risk” by Michael Lewis to understand how bad is it.
