It's a neat little blog.  I use the following to get my weather direct from the NWS...which their computers are constantly updating the graph output:
http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Youngstown&state=OH&site=CLE&textField1=41.0991&textField2=-80.6464&e=0&FcstType=graphical

And they also have the standard 7 day:
http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Youngstown&state=OH&site=CLE&textField1=41.0991&textField2=-80.6464&e=0

These are where the local forecasters get their info....and then they tweak it a bit so it doesn't seem like they pulled it from here....at least that's my opinion on it.

The one thing the NWS system does not seem to count for, is the way the valley seems to change the weather at times.  Another source I like to use is the WYTV Downtown Weatherbug location.  At least then I'm getting a city temp and not the airport temp:

A friend of mine sent this link to me. It appears to be an All-Youngstown Weather Blog. The author seems to be a teenager and updates it everyday. Perhaps I will get my weather from him as opposed to the ones that constantly screw up on tv, can't hurt right lol!
