my location is - 33772 Seminole, FL
In WW Live the 2 closest weather stations are Oceola High school (weatherbug) and St. Pete/Clearwater airport (NWS).
Where does weather watcher pull from?
The data comes from www.weather.com. I believe they use NWS stations and somehow calculate the weather conditions for cities where no stations exist.

Hmm strange that the closest NWS station to me is St. Pete/clearwater airport, and is the station I have selected in WW Live, and it is different than whatever NWS station is used in WW. Just trying to make sense on it…sorry to be such a pain
Re: weather watcher vs weather watcher live
I don’t see an airport by that name. The closest airport to that area seems to be the Albert Whitted Airport:

Which station is Weather Watcher using? Or are you saying the conditions are different?
Here is a comparison between Weather Watcher and Weather Watcher Live (as of right now):

It looks good to me. The smalls differences are most likely caused by the difference in time when the data was pulled from that station by weather.com and WeatherBug.com.
