What is Wx for iPhone? Description of Wx for iPhone 2540 chars

The venerable U.S. weather app Wx, named a Mac Gem by Macworld magazine, is now available for iPhone! 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 some 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.

Wx is also available for the iPad and OS X. See hrtapps.com for more info.

Wx for iPhone Pros

✓ Great app but two concerns...My first concern is that there isn't a lot of observation areas. My last concern is that it doesn't update that well, it updates every hour. If these concerns change, 5 stars. But great app and its worth to get..DxxhdcjcjfydyfudujfifjVersion: 1.4.4

✓ My go to weather appIn my opinion, the best of class. developer is prompt and professional..Fxt44Version: 1.4.5

✓ Wx for iPhone Positive Reviews

Wx for iPhone Cons

✗ Waste of MoneyDon't waste your time or money. Stations are so far away as to be completely useless. This app pulls information from weather stations that are not only many miles away but are in completely different climate zones that may be a 30 degree temperature difference from where I am, or may be in a full blown rain storm while I'm in full sun. Sorry I got suckered..So Terribly DisappointingVersion: 1.4.5

✗ Packed w/ great info but hasn’t been updated.I love weather apps that decide to get their info directly from the source (NWS). Great app for any weather enthusiast but minus a few stars because it appears as though it has been abandoned. Would love to see an update for larger screens..ErickdoxeyVersion: 3.0.1
