Some of us are currently not caring whether the forecast becomes true. 80+% it doesn’t in our situations. I’m ok just looking at actual received precipitation. If we do get the predicted amount, then I watered unnecessarily but when we don’t get it my yard won’t die. And if we get precipitation above our threshold, watering doesn’t occur and we save some water.
Not asking for it to be the norm. There should be 2 options.
- Actual precipitation only
- Precipitation + forecast (like now)
