Normally I don't participitate in the "me too" discussions but since no one brought it up, $5.00 to Weather Underground gives you AD-FREE displays for a year, and you can log into your account (sans ads) from any computer.
Their forecasts are very good for my area, though I do have to extrapolate from a NOAA marine forecast to account for the proximity to the ocean, and wind. I've been a paid member at Weather Underground for many years.

I bookmarked my hour-by-hour forecast page, so I never see the home page; and I use Firefox, so ads aren't a problem.

Interesting...I deleted the weather.com cookies from my cache and it works just fine.
I tried the other sites, but just didn't like them as much.

Bah.
They all for the most part get their base data from the National Weather Service. They may use different computer programs for predictive modelling, but the sattelite and radar stuff is all from one source.
