Here are some issues with trying out a nearby PWS.

Using a PWS

@George @franz Where do the temperature and rain forecast from PWS come from? In the examples below, I took screenshots of both the PWS nearby and the NWS station just 4 miles away. Note these differences PWS temperature forecast are about 15 degrees cooler every day than the NWS forecast. Also, the PWS forecast is way off since you can see it’s mid 90’s reading by both stations. PWS forecast a lot more rain than the NWS station. PWS shows a moon and NWS shows a sun, not sure if that matter…
