My pet peeve is writing a 10 minute response on the forum, clicking send and it goes to a screen that says I am not logged in. All the well thought out post is lost.

But, to sum up the lost post I say save your money Brant.

There is no information they are going to give you that you will not be able to get from the weather services.

You know when the golden hours are, and if you do not you now that the light is much better early morning and late evening close to sunrise and sunset. You also know that when it rains it clears the skys of haze and pollutants and it is easier to get clear pics. The clouds add texture and color to the sky.

Normally when I go on trips I take to many pictures at bad times. It all comes down to the best time to take a picture is when you are there and you have a camera. But during the eclipse and the trip to Yellowstone and Tetons this changed for me. This time I picked the spots based on weather and conditions. My goal was clear skys with an elevated spot that I could see for miles. We started on Friday deciding between Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana and Idaho. We made the final decision on a mountain by Howe Idaho at 5:00 monday morning at the intersection that would have taken us to the Tetons. We still had smoky haze on the moutains at Howe, but not as bad as the Tetons had been on Saturday. (We had a view from the top of 7000 foot peak that we were watching over the valley, had there been no haze our view would have been 30 miles or better) Then in Yellowstone we chased a few storms trying to get shots of a few different spots that I had in mind. Despite the rain, clearing skys at sunset and clouds the shot I wanted was not there this trip. The ingredients were there it didn't materialize. I didn't even bother setting up. There are weather and internet radar sites in about every part of the country. I really do not think you need to pay for the service.
