I use www.weather.com too. You can set it so it has your city at the top and you just click on that and it will give you a map of your area/temp etc. It also has a 10 day forecast at the bottom of that page. I found out weatherbug was spyware a couple of years ago when I had it and got rid of it. I can't remember how I found out but it explained all these weird pop-ups and stuff I was getting.

For a very good weather site, go to
intelicast.com

Gives you warnings and different types of radars.

I love weatherbug..it's not always right but it keeps up to date on radars, warnings, etc. Even though it's spyware I'm keeping it on my comp. IMO

I use this one, and I also use noaa.org ... the national weather service, their website is updated minutes after a warning is put out (tornado snow wind advisories) so I find it very valuable.

Spyware or not, I'm not getting rid of my weatherbug. I don't care who knows where I go online, so it's not a big deal to me.
