wi_fl_wx Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hi all, I just got an iPhone and was wondering what weather apps you guys have. I downloaded Radarscope and Hurricane but I am looking for apps with the following features: -NWS local forecast discussions -Forecast model maps (north American and tropics) -SPC outlooks/discussions -Space weather -Climate outlooks -Any other favorites you guys have Thanks!

LakeEffectKing Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Weather Tap Zoom isn't too bad for a free, relatively bug free app....but I haven't tried many others... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riptide Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 My questions also relates to this topic. What would be the ideal and cheapest mobile device for tracking weather away from the computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmeddler Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 You might have better luck in the Weather Marketplace forum. Alot of weather app reviews have been posted in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaculaWeather Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 My questions also relates to this topic. What would be the ideal and cheapest mobile device for tracking weather away from the computer? An Android tablet would be my choice, I don't go for proprietary iAnything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Accuweather CaneCast TWC Max (they refuse to update this version) WeatherBug Wx Alert USA Wunderground WeatherNeue They all kind of suck, I just use certain features from each of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witness Protection Program Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I dunno, seems just as fast to use my Safari bookmarks to: 1. local WUnderground page 2. WUnderground fullscreen radar 3. local NOAA page 4. and of course this website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoked Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Unisys weather app provides forecasts, current weather (satelitte/ radar / sfc-upper air maps), as well as RUC, NAM, GFS, ECMWF models as well as MOS output across the continental US. Has been very useful to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Radarscope is a must-have app for any weather enthusiast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I currently use Weather TAP (free version) for lake trips to get a quick radar and storm tracks. It really hasn't failed me yet. I love it's little location/pinpoint area of your phone. Definitely looking to upgrade to radarscope soon. $10 isn't too much as a one time payment to get much more detail in my opinion. EDIT: I forgot I use my local news stations app (WISTV) to get storm alerts although it's not very good. I wish NOAA hadn't taken the SMS warning service away from citizens.

huronicane Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I've got: - Radarscope - WeatherGeek Pro - Radio NOAA (uses Wunderground weather radio streams) - Mesonet (from the Oklahoma Mesonet) - MyWARN (uses the GPS feature in your phone to notify you if you are within an outlooked area, watch box, or warning polygon) - uWeather (from Unisys) - EF Scale (handheld reference to Damage Indicators and DOD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
