The point and click forecasts from the map above are forecasts generated directly from the National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD). They are no longer "Zone" or County-based forecasts but rather point-specific forecasts generated "on-the-fly" from gridded fields prepared by your National Weather Service Meteorologists. However, you can still get the Zone Forecast (WBCZFPLWX) by clicking here.
