Great Smart phone app all should have

Called Radar now. Shows rain in the area you are and how close it is or how close to being over. A great app.

Normally I use the local news channel's weather app, as it's basically just weather radar. I'll give this a try though, see if I like it more.

I have Radar Now. It's great! Also quite useful for bicycling.

Thanks for the recommendation, I had been using Travel Weather but couldn't get it to look "right" as there are too many options to view the raw weather data from the Doppler Radars. Not smart enough for that many bells and whistles.

I use FltPlan Mobile and DTC DUAT.

It gives metars and terminal forecasts and has a location radar; DTC Duat has tons of options for radar. Every other weather app has been absolute crap and consistently incorrect.

I wish I could just call the weather briefer every time I went for a ride Ahh, the perks of being a pilot.
