As a former slacker, let me sincerely thank you. I needed more professors and teachers like you. Life has deadlines and requirements and, unlike in school, you don't often even get a lot of time to meet them. People want the moon yesterday. In school, students are asked to give much less over a much longer time period. There's no excuse for late work.

Great post sir.

Ok, my tech-savvy friends, I'm trying to get geared up for spring and severe weather season. What are the best weather apps (free or otherwise) for an iPhone? Radar, etc.

Wunderground has a good app. Unysis has a good app for some misc. weather tools but nothing too fancy. My favorite weather app however is radarscope. Beautiful, high resolution animations. It costs $10 but I strongly recommend it.

Radarscope is the best I have seen for the iphone.  I think they have an app for the android market too, but it has a ton of features and is well worth the 9.99 price tag.

Weathertap also has a free decent radar app that allows zooming and decent location tracking.

I heard on the radio this morning that some guy was running around naked in traffic on Kildaire Farm Rd in Cary.

Yeah, he left from Wake Med Hospital. From what I understand he went into a neighborhood near the hospital, knocking on doors telling people he had escaped from the looney bin.

This really belongs in the OBS thread guys...Jk.

Just got out of a weather briefing for central NC from the state climate office. This weekend is not looking to be a major event...just chilly rain during the day with some scant snow showers Saturday evening. No accumulation is expected in Raleigh and maybe a light dusting alont the VA border. :cry:

Ugh. I'd rather just have it stay dry if that's all that would happen.

There are three iPhone apps that I rely on constantly.

 

 

Weather Alert USA

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/weather-alert-usa/id314502416?mt=8

 

I use this to get all of my NWS information; forecasts, AFDs, etc.

 

 

RadarScope

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/radarscope/id288419283?l=es&mt=8

 

Best radar app, especially for severe weather.  Works on iPad as well.

 

 

Weatherbug Elite

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/weatherbug/id281940292?mt=8

 

For me, this is my go-to radar app.  It's fast, graphically it's nice with the smoothing, and the p-type coloring is useful.  Works on iPad as well.

Well, they obviously aren't members of AmericanWx Forums. :)

Yeah...definately not in our camp!

They're forcasting the highs on Saturday to be in the 40's and the lows to be in the mid to upper 30's.  I have another call with them this afternoon so we'll see if they stay on this forcast or adjust it.
