What is the best web site for weather forecasting from both an accuracy and presentation standpoint?
I have tried many sites including weather.gov, weather.com, wunderground.com, yahoo weather, google weather, etc. and there is a wide difference in the forecasts and presentation. Which is the best combination and is there a consensus on the best?

If you want accuracy, you'll definitely have to pay money... but here are some other free websites:

http://www.myforecast.com/

I would like to hear about the pay sites that are worth trying. Thanks!
www.wunderground.com
I don't think any site is more 'accurate' than any other. It's all basic science with a lot of guessing.
I like wunderground because pulling up the local radar (with animation) is very quick and easy and the forecast is laid out very well.

This is the only weather website that you need to check...

When I visited http://doineedanumbrella.com/ and put in my zip code, it returned "invalid zip code".
I probably should tell our post office employees.

Yahoo weather....and on my iPhone is presents beautifully with no more and no less information that I need.
nothing like weather.com.
I have to second weather.com. While it is not innovative in any way, they do have the resources to put up a quality site.
However if you happen to live in Oklahoma, the heart of tornado alley and the storm chasing capital of the world, go to Oklahoma Weather Roundup at http://weather.ou.edu/wx/ It has every weather parameter you could possibly need to know to plot your very own chase trip!

I always go to www.wunderground.com. I think it is built in a very professional way and has everything what I need and also it has integration with Google Earth.
On the down side, I think they have a buggy code that computes the precipitation probabilities, but if you use common sense you can make it up.
