Same forecast as accuweather, weather underground, Apple weather and meteo.it for good measure.

most meteorology services are public services and hand out all their models for free so most third party apps just pick up those. so yeah just use whichever app you want, its generally fine unless the app is complete poo poo.

I just want something that publishes the 80% probability in addition to the 95% confidence interval for 48 hours.
Anything outside of that is basically just guess-work anyway.

yr does 60 hour short term, so they're a few hours away from the start of the race atm but theyre saying very light rain


0.4mm

Since when does yr.no cover France?!

I love that site and use it daily, but for a long time it only covered the Scandinavian area - I even mentioned it ITT.

they're part of the pan-european ECMWF network which gives them good coverage of europe, but its generally less high-res than their nordic coverage (9km between each measuring point in europe compared to 2.5km for the nordics). also iirc their coverage was so good in some odd places like australian or new zealand sheep farmers started relying on them instead of their local met office cause it was way more accurate or something?

i stand by my "use whatever you want" statement, but you will never get me to use anything but yr

What did I miss that brought out a safety car for an hour?

huge pileup which led to the toyota being beached with an electrical issue

based on my broadcast, they dont give a poo poo about anything other than the hypers, so i would not know

yeah the hyper class has been close as hell so they dont want to cut away from it, but at the same time its a freaking 24h race at least give me a few looks at the other classes. (not lmp2, they are to be heard not seen)

Noob rally question: How far apart are cars released? In the case of an off like that, is there a chance there's a car coming through in another minute or is the following car paused until it's clear?

I believe the commentary this weekend said they were spaced 2 minutes apart, but Rally Sweden says the top drivers get spaced 3 minutes apart with 1 minute for drivers in the lower classes.
