Madison, WI, January 25, 2006 -- MyWeather LLC, a leading provider of patented weather technology for the web, announced today that it will be providing weather data and services to the new nbcweatherplus.com web site.
MyWeather's MicroCast™ is the technology behind the nbcweatherplus.com street-address specific weather forecasts as well as innovative lifestyle weather content such as Golf, Beach and Football forecasts. MicroCast™ also powers the forecasts, which appear on-air in NBC Weather Plus' revolutionary L-bar. MyWeather's Forecast Tailor technology ensures that consistent forecasts are published across all platforms, and allows NBC Weather Plus' seamless network of weather experts – the local NBC meteorologists – to produce and publish precisely tailored local forecasts.
