Since I was young I’ve always been interested in the weather, no doubt instilled by my father’s experience at the Met Office. I fondly remember poring over cloud charts, and having isobars, warm fronts, and cold fronts explained, although I must admit I haven’t retained much knowledge of that. When a storm-chasing colleage of mine recently showed me Weather Pro, I was rather taken by the satellite and radar views of Europe. Sadly no isobars here, but there are rather nice animated satellite and radar maps:
It’s also a pretty handy gague of the weather each day, with a forecast for your location every 3 hours:
I’ve recently found this app very handy, what with our typical unsettled British summer! My iPhone wakes me up in the morning, I check Twitter, check BBC News, check my email, check the weather so I know what to wear, then get up. I’d be lost without my iPhone..
So in summary, Weather pro is OK. It’s nothing special, only covers Europe, and the satellite and radar views are chronologcally a little short. It does the job though. I wouldn’t mind finding a better weather app. If you know of one, let me know!
