Weather.com vs. accuweather

How can weather.com and accuweather.com have such differing information regarding the 10 day forecast? Does anyone know which one is more accurate?

I have both on my desktop. Accuweather breaks the weather down hourly better. From reading what others have written on this forum, I'm going to rely on Accuweather to get a better idea of storm/rain timeframes.

I always use accuweather now. I used to use Weather.com, but found they were wrong 8 or 9 out of 10 times. Accuweather is usually spot on.

I completely agree.
The past 3 or 4 trips to WDW, I obsessively watched both. Their forecasts were usually very different, and accuweather always turned out to be MUCH more accurate.

Maybe, just as an experiment, save to your computer a list of what each website says the next ten-day forecast will be, and then compare each day as it comes to what was predicted for that day - ideally, this is all before your trip - then you'll know which one was more on the money~ I have a feeling some websites have better intel in certain locations than others, or just use better intel period, and since we don't know for sure which does, this might help you figure it out!

They are one of our local TV stations and I've been quite pleased with their accuracy.
