If there’s one thing that you just can’t count on, it has to be the weather. Everything can change at a moment’s notice, and as you know, weather forecasts tend to be horribly inaccurate most of the time. Nonetheless, weather groupies still huddle around the TV watching The Weather Channel to see if any new updates are available for their area. If the wind speed increases by 1 MPH and shifts directions (oh my!), then you can count on them to bring out the plywood and preventatively board up the windows. Not everyone is this fanatical about staying on top of the weather, but if you would like to easily receive the forecast on your computer, check out Weather Depot.

This program gives you all of the information that you want, and it can even conveniently display a ticker or sit in your system tray. Use Weather Depot to plan your day to day activities, and any alerts that apply to your area will be displayed right on the screen. The software allows you to zoom in on your particular locale or view the national weather situation in the US. I really like the option that lets you see if airport delays are possible for the areas that you’re traveling to and from.
