~Weather News's Vision for Weather Forecasts~
Weather News aims to create more accurate weather forecasts "together with you." The accuracy of weather forecasts is determined by the "amount of information on the current weather." Tens of thousands of weather reports submitted daily by our members are analyzed at the forecasting center and used to improve daily weather forecasts.
You can report the current weather using the "10-Minute Weather Forecast." We look forward to your participation in creating weather forecasts together.
