AccuWeather

It's that time of year when the weather get's really unpredictable, and often very unpleasant - especially here in Vancouver. My last apartment was in the basement, and actually didn't have any windows that allowed me to see outside in a way that I could know the weather (I couldn't even tell if it  was raining). I often left the building quite innappropriately dressed for the day. Which was when I first picked up AccuWeather.

It's a weather app available for free in the App Catalogue. It does everything I need a weather app to do, and a little more.

It gives the current conditions as well as daily forecasts for the next two weeks and hourly for next day (twenty-four hours). It also gives you a satellite/radar view of the region's weather. There are also a few dozen "categories" (such as asthma, golfing, mosquitos, etc.) that it gives recommendations / ratings for.

Being free there is of course advertising. But it is very unobtrusive and only appears for brief moments.

This was the first weather app that I tried and I have never tried another. I've never seen the need. Considering that we are in the coldest November weather ever recorded here in British Columbia, AccuWeather is getting allot of use lately.
