What's the best weather app that I can use when traveling cross country? I'm planning a motorcycle trip out west in June/July and would like a weather app that's ore reliable than the one I'm currently using. The weather app I'm using now is linked to a local news channel and it's OK but would like something a bit more accurate

When I was still driving over the road, I used Storm Radar by the Weather Channel. It was really accurate; I could leave New York and know when I needed to be at certain mountain passes out west to get across before the snow closed them.

I've been using Weawow since I read about in a similar thread. Very visually attractive and customizable. Plenty of widgets. Several weather providers available.
I paid the $3 for a lifetime subscription to WTF Weather. Best weather app I have ever had. It tells the weather pretty accurately, and gives some pretty inappropriate comments about the weather.

I use weather bug now. I had been using weather channel for over a decade, but they changed something that made it unusable now. Been using the bug one for a few months, just wish I could find something like the old weather channel one

And here I thought I'd be the only one deranged enough to use that!

I use the NWS hourly forecast app. It is easy to use and is the most accurate for your travel needs. I use WUNDERGROUND (Far Ranging), RADAROMEGA (Close in) and RADARSCOPE for radar. I subscribe to 10-12 different weather apps and those are the ones I use most often. Billy
