Some proposed changes[edit]

Hello,
Based on your feedback from the recent submissions that were rejected, we have updated the requests based on your comments.

After the “Company Profile” section and before the “Products and Services” section, please create a new section titled:

China Joint Venture[edit]


In this section, please add the following paragraphs: “In May, 2015, AccuWeather signed a Joint Venture with the Chinese government’s weather arm to expand forecasting and weather information to locations in China. The joint venture also formed partnerships with Chinese and non-Chinese companies wanting to provide weather information within China. Due to new regulations in China enforcing that all public weather information, forecasts and warnings come from the China Meterological Administration, the joint venture makes AccuWeather the only company able to distribute weather worldwide.” [1]

In the “Products and Services” section, please add a new paragraph with the following:
“AccuWeather has an app on Apple TV, providing real-time severe weather alerts, hourly forecasts, 15-day forecasts, 45-day forecasts, Accuweather’s Minutecast and a variety of other weather-related video content to Apple TV users.” [2] [3]

Within the “Products and Services” section, please create a new sub-section titled:

MinuteCast[edit]


In this sub-section, please add the following paragraph “MinuteCast provides users with minute-by-minute forecast updates including precipitation type, intensity, and start and end times for top local landmarks. Data is refreshed every five minutes to provide users with the most relevant and accurate forecast possible. MinuteCast is currently available in the United States, Canada, UK, Ireland, Japan, France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Netherlands, Lexembourg, parts of the Czech Republic, and Spain.[4] [5]
Accuweather has also partnered with Garmin to include the technology in the Garmin Vivoactive HR Smartwatch, as well as Ford with their AppLink technology. [6]


After the “Minutecast” section, please create a new sub-section titled:

AccUcast[edit]


In this sub-section, please add the following paragraph “AccUCast is AccuWeather’s global crowdsourcing tool, which allows people worldwide to make real-time weather and road hazard observations available. AccuCast also allows users to report conditions that may occur due to inclimate weather like flooding or slippery roads.” [7]

After the “AccUcast” section, please create a new sub-section titled:

AccuWeather 45-Day Forecast[edit]


In this sub-section, please add the following paragraph “AccuWeather’s 45-Day Forecast gives people more advanced notice of upcoming weather conditions by providing the public with comprehensive weather information to plan for events. Each day in the 45-day forecast includes the forecast high and low temperatures, real-feel temperature, sky conditions and chance of precipitation, wind speed and direction, rain, snow and ice amounts, thunderstorm probability, cloud cover and UV index.” [8]

After the “AccuWeather 45-Day Forecast” section, please create a new sub-section titled:

Hi there. An edit request should be posted on the article's talk page, giving a chance for other involved editors to express their opinion on the matter, and form a consensus on whether or not should such change be implemented. After a consensus has been reached, or if there is no clear opposition to the proposed change, the edit template should be added to the talk page, and an independent editor (such as myself) will either make or decline the change. Regards, VB00 (talk) 13:00, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
