When I use weather.com or the such, I am inundated by Ads, useless info, text boxes, scroll bars, "click here to go Pro messages", etc. I like this site however I don't see anyone making a dime off of it (except for the domain name registrar). Not exactly Web 2.0 but neither is http://word.sc which I love and used to make sure that "inundated" was used correctly. ;) Thanks for the tip on 4ca.st also. Why is everyone hating on this website?

You can also see how the forecast for a given date has changed over time. @Rajiv, Ayal,Rajesh,etc. ForecastAdvisor provides a nice permalink for each zipcode's forecast. @datter My submission for ForecastAdvisor.com to TechCrunch back in late 2006 was ignored, even though it has had coverage in many newspapers around the country and in The Numbers Guy column in the Wall Street Journal Online. Also, my comment about my site with live links has been "awaiting moderation" since 5:45am PDT this morning (almost 10 hours). I think that might answer your question. Hopefully because this comment doesn't have live links, it won't be awaiting moderation for over 10 hours. Check out ForecastAdvisor.com, it does what simpleweather does, only with more.
