Enjoy – and stay safe!

Android

• The Weather Channel: “This app is working great. All the info I need. It starts quickly and so far, runs smoothly. Love that I can see weather at all locations I regularly travel too.”
• WeatherBug or WeatherBug Elite: “Best app I’ve found for weather. I can set the level of background updates or if I want my location on at all. I can also pick the weather station best for my location. Great swipe gestures and the ads are in a tiny bar. No issues so far! Very happy with this app.”
• AccuWeather for Android: “Clean, simple and accurate! Love that it’s in the notification bar too!”
• Weather, Radar, Alerts, Quakes: “By far the most complete weather app on the market. Works for all over the world. Don’t waste your time with any other half baked app as this is the only one you will need. Combine this with simple weather alert and you are fully advised any time if the day.”
• My-Cast Weather: “Removed all other weather apps after trying this. Can get current, forecast, radar, and alerts at a glance. Supports both my current location and a list of other saved locations. I use this on both my Droid Pro and on my Nook Color. It rocks on both! Concur with another reviewer that an alert map view would be nice. One of my favorite and most used apps.”

For iPhone or iPad

• WeatherBug: “The new UI is amazing! Accurate and easy to use. This is my go to app for weather.”
• Weather+ Free: “I really like how everything you need is on 1 page.”
• Weather+: “This app is way better than the one apple gives you. This one actually has good graphics. It also has a bunch of other things, including, wind speed, precipitation amount, and wind direction. Thanks again love this app!!!”
• MyRadar Weather Radar: “Gives a view of Doppler radar coast to coast almost instantly. Quick and easy zoom function means you can see the locale you want quickly. Automatically shows the weather in motion, which is what you want. I use this to see what’s going on before any other app or other source.”
• The Weather Channel: “Thanks for the update. We are having an early spring, so the pollen info is just in time. Btw – the app feels a lot faster. Good update!”
• Weather Radar HD Lite: “I travel daily around my state for work and this app helps me know where the bad weather is, sometimes it takes awhile to load but other than that I love it!”
• Weather HD Free:  ”The graphics are stunning. And the information seems accurate.”
• Weather Underground: “My favorite weather app has been weather HD for a long time but I’m switching now. The amount of info in this app is awesome. I drive a lot so it’s great to see all the radio stations available in the area.”
• Weather Live Free: “Nice graphics.works good. Beautiful.”
• Swackett: “I originally got this app because it looked kind of fun. It’s still fun, but now surprisingly functional as well. There are a lot of features and the app is really well designed and still fun. You can really tell that a lot of love went into this app!”
