> It removes a sense of artificial precision that doesn’t really exist because weather forecasts fundamentally have very high uncertainty and error bands.
While this is true on the multi-day range for sure, what really made Dark Sky magical was its to-the-minute prediction of rain.
If Dark Sky said "rain in 22 minutes", you had 18-26 minutes to walk a dog before getting wet.
No other weather app has ever come close to that.
