where do you get weather info online (expected snow accumulation etc)

I always use weather.com and feel like a moron b/c I never feel like i can find what I want- I live in an area affected by this storm & I can see the whole hourly prediction of when it might/will snow but how do I figure out the estimated accumulation during that time?

Is there a better website to use that clearly shows that type of thing?

I'm not really a fan of weather.com for any real detailed forecasts. I prefer the National Weather Service. http://www.weather.gov/

Enter in your zip code and it will give you daily summary forecasts. If you scroll down a bit on the right side of the screen it should say "Hourly Weather Graph". Click on that and it will give you a graph that includes forecasted rain and snow totals along with the probability of it occuring.

At the bottom of your main page there should also be a link to Forecast Discussion that will give you even more information. There is some technical weather jargon in there but also usually gives you quantities and likelihood.

NOAA seems to have the most accurate information, but it isn't always as detailed as I would like.

I always go to www.wunderground.com. It has live radars. But, I am usually looking at tropical storms.
