What is Wx for iPad? Description of Wx for iPad 2588 chars
The venerable U.S. weather app Wx, named a Mac Gem by Macworld magazine, is now available for iPad! Wx displays current conditions, forecasts, alerts, and radar for U.S. locations using high fidelity XML data from the U.S. National Weather Service. The app is designed for two specific types of customers: serious weather watchers who want detailed information and facts with no fuss, and casual users who want a fast, clean, and functional weather app that has low memory overhead and low CPU/battery usage.
Wx lets you choose your location on an embedded map, and uses that to setup custom forecasts based on the latitude and longitude of the location. Forecasts include a 7-day summary "point" forecast, and a 7-day “pro” forecast that graphs temperature (actual and apparent), dew point, relative humidity, cloud cover, wind speed, wind direction, gust speed, 12-hour probability of precipitation, 6-hour liquid precipitation amount, and 6-hour snow amount. These forecasts are about as good as it gets if you need to plan work, sports, hobbies, and outdoor activities based on upcoming weather. With their high spatial resolution, the point and pro forecasts are especially useful in coastal and mountainous regions, where typical zone forecasts can be inaccurate.
Wx also lets you receive current conditions data from nearby NWS observation sites (over 1700 available in the U.S. and its territories), get radar data from nearby NEXRAD radar sites, and receive warnings from nearby city- and county-based alert zones.
Wx lets you bookmark and setup weather maps for quick reference. Choose from many default NWS maps and images, or provide the URL for any map of your choice and load it right in the app! If you have preferred weather providers, you can load your favorite maps and images right in Wx and keep them handy.
Wx is crafted with attention to detail by a professional software developer with 29 years of experience, 15 years focused on developing weather software for OS X and 12 years writing apps for iOS devices. Wx has multiple levels of redundancy to handle severe weather events that can strain NWS servers, and even offers network settings for both Wi-Fi and cellular operation so that you can fine tune the app’s performance and bandwidth needs.
Mac users, be sure to check out Wx for OS X on the Mac App Store. iPhone users, check out Wx for iPhone here on iTunes.

Wx for iPad Pros
✓ Thanks for updating the iPad versionThanks for updating the iPad version so that it can be viewed in landscape mode and be zoomable..Version: 3.1.1
✓ WX best weather app yet!At last a weather app done properly. WX puts a wealth of weather information on your iPad, clearly and attractively presented. Adding additional locations is a breeze, and the ability to select watch and alert areas is ingenious. After trying a bunch of others, I've found the best in WX. The developer is responsive to feedback and suggestions. For the price - WX is a bargain. Five stars..Version: 0
✓ Wx for iPad Positive ReviewsWx for iPad Cons
✗ New IOS wrecks WxAn upgrade in weather service servers once killed the functionality of this great app & the developer had to scramble for weeks to restore it. Now the latest IOS is working its magic....It remains a mystery to me why this can never be anticipated and addressed beforehand. I guess its back to the old 'Forecast' app, again....Content and functionality over jellybean graphics and candypants-wearing millenial marketeer aesthetics, anyday, thanks much....(As in, eat MY shorts, o.k.?).Version: 2.0.2
✗ Background changed to all whiteHate the all white background intensely. All white is hard on the eyes and for me, much more difficult to read. Please at least give us the choice of background color. Otherwise, will have to find new weather app..Version: 2.0
