The data displayed seems to come from national weather services like Environment Canada and the American National Weather Service , but often without mention of the source. They have one goal, an aim to connect the public citizens of North America with weather conditions expected within the next month. History North American Weather Services formally began on June 15, 2005 with the company name of North American Met . On December 25 the name was changed to North American Weather Services in hope to attract more weather enthusiasts from the United States and Mexico . However there have been many other smaller websites opened by the head administrator in 2000 Ontario Weather Center which was closed in 2001 due to low website traffic, and again in 2004 Litohin Weather which was also abandoned. In June 2005 North American Weather Services opened its own community weather discussion forum, which grew in to 97 members in 4 months.
