Is it normal to get some difference in temperature between wunderground website and wunderground API? | The WeatherAPI Community Customer Community

Why there is always some difference in temperature when I check the current weather on the wunderground website and wunderground API at the same time? I don't have a paid account yet but the difference I am getting is sometimes up to 4-5 degrees. Is that me or it has something to do with the constant change of data?

I too am seeing differences between the api data and the website. An example difference can be seen by using the following 2 urls and looking at the forecast for the different days...

From site: http://www.wunderground.com/q/31522

From api: http://api.wunderground.com/api/my_ke...

Same problem here too. I notice it with the high/low forecast. The current conditions however are entirely accurate.

We're currently testing a new forecasting system, but it's only on the website. Once we're satisfied that it's both more accurate and more precise, we'll roll it out to the API and our other products.
