Re: Weather Forecasts - Your opinions please

Are there is a slight problem. With Weather Underground I was allowed 50 queries a day, but I could ask for multiple weather stations in one query.
With AccuWeather, I have a free allowance of 50 queries a day, but can only query one weather station at a time.
So, I could either just query Paphos 48 times a day (ie every half hour) or query 6 locations (Paphos, Peyia, Polemi, Polis, Panagia and Pissouri) 8 times a day.
When it is written down, the second option doesn't sound bad. You would still get an hourly forecast for the next few days, but it would only be updated every 3 hours. This way the matrix would still make sense.
So I favour the second approach. How about you?

That said yesterday I left home around 1pm and it started to tip own with rain until I got to the Coral Bay road where the road was totally dry and not a drop of rain at all until I was leaving Peyia around a couple of hours later.
