Really good weather information for the expat residing in Uruguay
If you've made the move from the USA to Uruguay, you'll notice that there is constant weather information on broadcast TV. It's the temperature at the location of the TV station.
That's it.
What did you expect? It's a country of about 3 1/2 million people. They don't have the internal air traffic to justify a network of ground-based weather radars to monitor every little movement of the air.
However, there's an unlikely source of information available on the web. Hint: you're paying for it through what's most likely your very most expensive household bill - UTE. The power is coming - for the most part - from dams. They keep close tabs on rainfall.
Rather than wading through their site, here are the direct links.
