MyWeather, LLC has announced MyWeather Mobile, a weather information application for the iPhone. It lets iPhone users access weather maps, current conditions and forecasts on the go, and also provides full screen interactive radar. The app is available for US$14.99 at the Apple App Store.
MyWeather Mobile combines animated radar with Microsoft Virtual Earth technology, letting you view weather conditions at your specific location—or any other location around the country. Turning the phone horizontally truly puts you in control by displaying a full-screen version of the map and radar, allowing you to pinch, flick, zoom, and double tap the map down to the street level, exactly as a broadcast meteorologist would. This precision also allows you to view golf courses, schools, stadiums, or any other key points of interest and view the radar at that exact location.
In addition to the interactive radar, MyWeather Mobile also offers weather data, including current conditions, temperature, precipitation, wind speed, and 12-hour trends. GPS technology allows you to automatically receive the current conditions and forecast for your exact location, and you can store multiple locations on your device to check three or six day forecasts for the places that matter to you most.
