The NOAA weather info for 78727 is WAY off. The temp and rainfall history bears no resemblance to reality. I know I can switch to another service, but I want to know why NOAA is always wrong. Do you do anything to validate their info from time to time? Are you sure you are interfacing with them correctly? How does one verify that they are reporting on 78727 (Austin, TX) and not some other place in the world?

  Hi, Hal
  You can always double check NOAA forcast on their official webpage:
  https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=30.26759000000004&lon=-97.74298999999996#.YOdXTuS6m_Y

  Let us know if NOAA data on their page are the same as the RainMachine fetched.

  Thank you.

  I am also showing incorrect NOAA information. Rainmachine show the max/min temps for today is 94/69. NOAA for my address shows 102/70.

  The last weather update was successful today. I don't use any other weather services. Rainmachine is consistently low on the max temps every day of the week.
