Forecast broadcast

Several mobile and computer applications offer weather reports for thousands of cities all over the world. These reports are invariably from sources based in the West, and provide weather forecasts obtained from computer simulations which usually are not correct. Accurate real-time data needs regular monitoring with human input. In our case, the relevant department issues statements that are acceptable on a macro level, but not in terms of facilitating the people to adjust their activity schedules. We need an official weather channel to provide real-time data and forecasts that will surely help businesses, travellers and event organisers.
