Weather Watchers
Related: About this forumWhat weather app do you recommend?
Im looking for an app for an iPhone
but I think most of the good apps are designed to work on either Android or IO phones. Am tired of the crappy Weather Channel app that came with this phone, and they discontinued the Dark Sky app I had been using.
Am looking for good radar imaging and weather alerts, mainly. Often find it interesting to look at global weather patterns.
I dont mind paying for the app
but Im not interested in a premium app that charges a monthly subscription fee.
BTW, if you havent seen it, the Ventusky.com website has lots of good stuff
but not up to the minute radar.
Thanks for any suggestions and experience with weather apps that you care to share!

(3,829 posts)Most of their weather data is collected from a network of 250,000+ personal weather stations so the data is close to real-time . Users in the US can switch to the National Weather Service data if they prefer that. I've used it for years.

Ventusky (gives a lot of data)
and for Heatstroke (wet bulb) information Heatstroke WBGT (Shikibu Automation)
I appreciated Dark Sky too.
