They haven't done it in the past several years--if they ever did it at all. Recon data are virtually real-time these days.
I want to know who we should believe when Accuweather reports a storm will strike both Houston and New York, and TWC reports the same storm will strike Miami and New Orleans.
When has this happened? Everyone initially uses the official forecast from the National Hurricane Center. I have never seen TWC deviate from that. I don't follow Accuweather so I can't comment on their service. I do believe that the on-air forecasters may talk about different scenarios that could alter the projected path of the storm, however, if you read the forecast discussions put out by NHC, they address the same issues. TWC only re-hashes info put out by NWS or NHC.
