AccuWeather

Tags:

AccuWeather is an advanced weather application on the Palm Pre. In addition to showing basic current weather and weather forecast, it also does radar and satellite imagery. It defaults to 5-day forecasts, and shows wind, humidity, dew point, and the sunrise and sunset time for any given city. Tapping on the clock icon in the bottom menu bar brings up an hour-by-hour forecast.

AccuWeather also has a proprietary parameter called “RealFeel” that takes into account humidity, wind-chill, and other factors and displays a temperature that represents what it really feels like on the ground. As weather applications go, this one is pretty advanced, and there’s really not much else that can be added to it. It works well, with no noticeable lags as it pulls up maps and overlays radar images. If you travel a lot or need a solid weather application for other reasons (perhaps you’re a storm chaser), you can’t go wrong with this Pre app.
