Weather forecasters say the nation gets value for money
U S weather officials and private outfits say improvements in accuracy and quality have reduced big surprises despite occasional snowstorms and rainouts. Two day forecasts now rival one and a half day forecasts five years ago, with alerts for severe weather prioritized over nuisance showers. The National Weather Service operates 52 forecast offices and processes data from balloons ships ground stations and satellites to produce guidance twice daily for federal and private use.
