SunnySky Weather vs SkyForge

SunnySky is the honest weather instrument: up to six independent forecast sources side by side — disagreement included — plus live reports from people actually standing under that sky. WEATHER THAT ANSWERS "Can I run before the rain?" SunnySky computes the answer and shows its work: a dry-window finder, activity windows for the things you actually do outside (run, ride, golf, stargaze — fifteen and counting), and a morning briefing push with your day in one line. MULTIPLE FORECASTS, ONE HONEST VERDICT Open-Meteo, MET Norway, the National Weather Service, Apple Weather, Pirate Weather, and OpenWeather are fetched independently; regional availability varies. When they disagree, you see it — never an averaged-away guess. A multi-model rain vote adds another view, and models without local data are excluded rather than counted as dry. SEE THE STORM COMING Animated radar with a short-term forecast loop, GOES satellite imagery, NWS warning polygons, SPC severe-weather outlooks, and tropical systems — on a fast, dark map built for reading the sky, not admiring the cartography. GROUND TRUTH FROM REAL SKIES Official NWS spotter reports (hail sizes, wind damage, flooding) seed a live feed alongside reports from the SunnySky community. Ask a place a question — "still open and usable?" — and get answers from people who are there. Confirmations keep reports honest: still true, or not anymore. YOUR PEOPLE, YOUR PLACES Follow the folks and spots you care about — is it raining at Mom's house? — and see them on the map. Following a person requires their approval, and followers-only reports stay private until they say yes. You choose what each friend sees: your live town, a town you pick, or only your reports. Always a town name, never a pin on your house. THE INSTRUMENT STANDARD Station observations next to model output. Units on every number. Timestamps on every reading. Severe weather alerts are included for every account. Sources: Open-Meteo, MET Norway, US National Weather Service, Apple Weather, Pirate Weather, OpenWeather, NOAA (MRMS, SPC, NHC, CO-OPS, SWPC), Environment and Climate Change Canada, NASA GIBS, aviationweather.gov, USGS, CARTO, and OpenStreetMap.
