Weather Information and Services
Weather Information
We aim to provide accurate weather forecasts and information, but weather forecasting is not an exact science. All forecasts and weather information are provided "as is" without any guarantee of accuracy. Weather conditions can change rapidly and local conditions may vary from forecasts.
Use of Weather Information
You should not rely solely on our weather information for decisions where inaccurate forecasts could result in injury, damage, or loss. For weather-sensitive activities, you should verify conditions from multiple sources and monitor local conditions. We are not liable for any decisions or actions you take based on our weather information.
