Forecasts come from the National Weather Service's own computer models, and current conditions from the nearest reporting weather station. Both are served through the weather API. A forecast is guidance, not a warning, and anything the Weather Service has actually issued is on the live map.

How well can the network see Norway?
The nearest Doppler radar is KGYX (Portland, ME), 29 miles to the SE. A WSR-88D's lowest routine scan sits half a degree above horizontal, and the earth curves away beneath it, so by the time that beam reaches Norway its center is about 1,800 ft above ground. That is about as close as radar coverage gets in the United States: the lowest scan is still near the ground when it reaches Norway, so low-level rotation and the leading edge of a gust front show up on it. Norway is closer to its radar than 72% of US cities.
The closest instrument actually measuring the air is KLEW · Auburn-Lewiston Muni on the ASOS/AWOS network, 20 miles away. Far enough that "current conditions" for Norway is an educated reading of somewhere else, worth knowing before you plan around a single temperature.
Beam height is the standard 4/3-earth approximation for the 0.5° scan and assumes normal refraction; it is where the center of the beam is, not its edges, and unusual temperature profiles bend it. Radar siting from the NWS WSR-88D network, station positions from the Maine observing network as of this build.
