hey that seems like a pretty straightforward option
wonder why it’s not more popular
adding on to grue’s comment; john oliver put out a good episode that will shed some light on why:

Because AccuWeather’s lobbying efforts have resulted in NOAA being prohibited from competing with “value-added” private-sector weather services.

I have my city bookmarked there, and the radar. Plus they have the best warnings. Not to mention that other sites use their data as well.
My guess is because it’s not a company. NOAA didn’t have to make money because it’s government.
