Hudson Valley Weather

For those of you who are on Facebook and, like me, are always searching for accurate weather forecasts for our area, I have found a cool page to "like". It is Hudson Valley Weather HVWX1 https://www.facebook.com/HVWX1. I find the page a great source of weather commentary for the local Hudson Valley area.

If you would like to read about Alex Marra, who writes the page, here is a link to a recent article in the Kingston Times. Port Ewen Mans Facebook page gets thumbs up with every storm Alex is not a professional meteorologist but uses the National Weather Service Information and his Accuweather Professional account (these are the same sources that the professionals use) to shape his insights. His forecasts have proven to be fairly accurate. Certainly as much or more than the other sources available to us.

So I recommend "liking" him on Facebook and adding him to your weather forecasting arsenal.
