I was a weather forecaster in the AF. Don't do it professionally anymore, so it's more of a hobby.
FYI, the airport TAFs are spot forecasts and get the timing down to the hour.
By contrast, your local meteorologist needs to do an area forecast which requires more generality.
So if you go to the NWS site and look up the KC airport forecast, for example, it's a bit more helpful in my experience.
