Weather.com no longer reliable 2
Nice sharp example of the decline in weather.com's accuracy since they switched to Mobile Mode. These screenshots were taken at the moment when I could see that the drops have stopped and the wind has started. In other words, the back edge of the storm is passing us. (Thank god! We need rain to make up for last year's superdry, but this is getting sort of tiresome.)
Before the change, weather.com would have RELIABLY AND CONSISTENTLY shown the back edge directly over this part of Spokane. Now Wunderground is closer to reality, but neither represents it properly.
