Why Us?
Why bother checking the weather on MinyanCast, instead of the apps or sites you already use?
3 simple reasons
1. Locally operated
An experienced weatherman who knows what is happening; not someone in New York or California. We know the classic Baltimore weather swings.2. Uncanny accuracy
We have a success rate of over 90%, and we can prove it. Just go to accuracydata.minyancast.com. In multiple case studies, MinyanCast was found to be over 38% more accurate than AccuWeather. In fact, in October 2021, MinyanCast was 95% more accurate!3. Relevant content
The information you actually need to know, such as what will happen when going to shul or walking out for carpools.More about us
MinyanCast was started in January 2021 with the intention of providing accurate forecasts that are more catered to our community.
We found that people often didn't know how to translate forecasts on Google into real-life use, or how to understand differing forecasts across different apps.
So we created MinyanCast to bring easy-to-understand weather forecasts to our community, without compromising on the accuracy everyone expects.
Our Forecasts
What are our forecasts based on? What do they include?
MinyanCast bases their forecasts on computer models, which are supercomputers managed by the U.S. government and Canadian government, among other organizations. These provide a display of atmospheric and on-the-ground data and forecasts, which is based on the data given to them by weather balloons, which are sent twice daily.
