What Is It?

The WeatherBug Digital Forecast (WDF) is a revolutionary new way to process weather information and predict what will happen with greater accuracy and specificity.

The WDF is based on 200 million points of data plotted on a grid that covers the entire country in three-square-mile increments. As conditions change throughout the day, grid points are updated by meteorologists to assure up-to-the-second accuracy.

How Will It Help Me?

The WeatherBug Digital Forecast (WDF) will provide you a better, more accurate forecast because it is tailored to where you live. For example, if you live near the ocean, your hourly WDF forecast will be different than that of a location five miles inland. If you live in a valley, the forecast will be different than a location at a higher elevation.

The WDF will help you plan and make better decisions for convenience and comfort.

• How should I dress for the baseball game tonight at the stadium across town?
• Will soccer practice be on tomorrow at 2pm?
• Should I water my plants this evening or will it rain tomorrow?
• Should we move our tennis match to later in the evening because it will be hot?

The WDF will make day-to-day questions like these easier to answer so you can make the right choices.

How Is It Different from Other Weather Forecasts?

Forecast models from other weather providers are typically created at a single “hub” location for entire counties that can be hundreds of square miles for a 12-hour period. Even weather providers that list hourly forecasts are creating them at a central location.

The WDF taps the expertise of meteorologists from 122 field offices across the United States who apply their knowledge of the local terrain to forecast models.

No other weather service provides the combination of live conditions from WeatherBug weather stations in your neighborhood and forecasts tailored to your location by the hour.
