FAQ - Fast forecast
From WunderWiki
Back to: Main FAQ Page
At the top of any page on Wunderground.com, you will find a search box that you can use to look up local weather. You may enter any of the following:
- Zip code (94107)
- City (San Francisco)
- State (California)
- City, State (San Francisco, CA; San Francisco, California)
- Airport Code (SFO; OAK; SJO)
- Country (New Zealand)
- City, Country (Nelson, New Zealand)
If you have trouble finding a location using abbreviations, particularly for locations outside of the U.S., please try spelling out the country name. For example, rather than Nelson, NZ, you should enter Nelson, New Zealand. You can also try entering only the country name, such as Switzerland, which will bring up a list of the cities we have weather information for in that location.
Our program chooses the closest reporting station to a city, without taking geographical factors into account. If you scroll down the city forecast page, you should see a selection of other stations that are close to your town. Would any of these cities more accurately represent your area? If so, please let me know and I will see if we can change the default. If not, then unfortunately, we do not have a more accurate station at this point in time. If a closer one opens up, we will begin to display their data instead.
