I love my iPhone, that’s for sure, but I do not love Apple’s weather App that comes with it.  So, I got the AccuWeather App, which is FREE!  It is 100 times more informative and accurate than the built in one (what the heck is a drippy sun, anyways).  Here are some screen caps hilighting a few of its features:

The current conditions

The current conditions - Does Cameron need a sweater?

the Hourly forecast - to go to the park, or no?

the Hourly forecast - to go to the park, or no?

the 15 day forecast - will it rain for that birthday party this weekend?

Risk - should I chance going out without my umbrella?

I reference this app all the time when trying to figure out what to clothes to put Cameron in, if I should take the Ergo or the Stroller (pushing a stroller while holding an umbrella is NOT easy!) if we have time to make it to the swings at Camel Park, shall we go have a picnic in Fort Greene Park?  Its invaluable, especially since it’s free!  The only thing I think this app is not great for is checking the radar of the area.  For that, I refrence the Weather.com App, which is also free.  So why not get both at the App store!
