About Our Weather Service
Our Story & Mission
Learn about the passionate team behind Forecast Update and our commitment to delivering accurate, accessible weather information to everyone.
Our Story
Forecast Update was born from a simple observation: while weather affects everyone’s daily life, most weather services were either too complex for casual users or too simplistic for those who needed detailed information.
Founded in 2020 by a team of meteorology enthusiasts and software developers, we set out to create a weather service that strikes the perfect balance between comprehensive data and user-friendly presentation. What started as a small side project has grown into a trusted platform serving millions of users worldwide.
Our journey has been guided by one principle: weather information should empower people to make better decisions, whether they’re planning a weekend trip, preparing for severe weather, or simply deciding what to wear.
“To make accurate, reliable weather information accessible and understandable for everyone, everywhere – because informed decisions start with clear information.”
Our Values
Accuracy First
We prioritize data accuracy above all else, using multiple reliable sources and advanced algorithms to ensure you get the most precise forecasts.
Global Accessibility
From major metropolitan areas to remote villages, we believe everyone deserves access to reliable weather information regardless of location.
Transparency
We’re open about our data sources and methodology because we believe you should know where your information comes from.
