Weather Underground to provide data for Cyber-Rain

ENCINO, Calif. – Cyber-Rain, makers of web-based, central irrigation systems, announced a partnership with Weather Underground, providers of weather information.
 
Weather Underground has developed a network of personal weather stations, with 16,000 in the US and more than 8,000 internationally, that provides localized weather conditions. The company’s forecasting technology, BestForecast, publishes the recent accuracy of its forecasts for each location.
