I understand that weather on TV can’t be hyperlocally accurate. But a weather app on my phone has my exact GPS coordinates. Why can’t it tell me exactly when a rain cloud will be passing over my location?

It’s gotten to the point where I just use precipitation maps to figure out my rain chances for the day.

The hourly forecast is mostly useless because it’s not a chance % but a % of the area that will be raining.

    That’s not a correct understanding of how Snopes works. They debunked this.

      We’ve investigated ourselves, and have found nothing wrong!

        I think you just restated their joke.
