TIL that Apple now provides most of their own data for the Weather app

I thought they were still using the The Weather Channel, but not anymore.

Apple provides their own forecast, precipitation, and temperature now.

I was wondering why I don’t see the The Weather Channel logo in the bottom of the Weather app. There’s a report button for inaccurate weather too.

Huh, that’s interesting. Hopefully we get Dark Sky precipitation information in Canada.

Most data, if not all, is sourced from National Weather agencies in their respective countries. What the companies do with the info after that is up to them but this why paying for simple weather data is a scam.

Actually, this page lists where Apple sources its weather data from, under "Data sources":

According to Apple support it’s mostly all from Apple Weather services, only severe weather and air quality are provided by other data sources.
