Apple bought up my go to weather app, Darksky and shutdown access to non iphone users, like I needed another reason to hate apple..

Anyway, Windy is the name of the app from the play store that I am currently using as a replacement. Using the default "wind" setting , it really gives a good picture of the coming storm and its latest predicted path and timeline.
It is far different from Darksky, I guess if you're a iPhone user I would recommend y'all have a look at Darksky, even if you have to pay for it.
 
Same here, I was pissed when they cancelled Darksky. Even more so when they billed for the year two days before it went off line.

Im using Weawow and it's pretty good.
 
IBM/TWC (or whoever) kinda sorta did the same thing to Weather Underground after they bought it. It’s still okay but I can’t setup the my page like I use to. Windy looks pretty good ... thanks.

I have been using the Fox8 max weather app for some time. Its free and has worked just fine. Many options available to customize it as well.

Windy.com is a decent weather site. I didn't know they had an app. I've been using My Radar for years, I like it. I think I even purchased this one and added Hurricane tracking. I think that is the only app I have ever purchased. Pretty sure there is a free version.

My Radar app uses/accesses some of the radar technology used by private/commercial pilots.

I have used the free version on highway travels out West and back across the country and it works spot on.
 
I am with @Hashknife My Radar app. I pay the $10/year for the upgrade and love it. It has always been right on the money.
 
Weather Underground was and a terrorist group, wonder why the weather company picked that name.

Anyone try Beaumont weather or golden triangle weather ( be sure to include weather or you'll go to not good sites ) it shows really neet data.
 
not worth putting on your phone.
I must be the only person that doesn't use a phone for everything! I feel old.:rolleyes:

I do most things on my chromebook, but that's because I am old and need big buttons to type with and a big screen to see things with. The weather apps I have on here look great on this screen! My phone does lots of cool stuff, but for me calls and texts and pics are good enough uses for it.

Whatever happened to businesses just offering a good product, treating their employees well and quietly minding their own business?
