The country is covered by a 5 kilometer grid with a unique forecast over each 5 kilometer square. If there is a long fuse Watch/Warning/Advisory in effect for your location, touch the red rectangle and display the hazard in the web browser. Display the weather parameters you want including Temperature, Dew Point, Apparent Temperature (wind chill or heat index), Relative Humidity, Probability Of measurable Precipitation, Wave Height (over coastal areas), Wind, Cloud cover, Rain and Snow amounts. Choose one, or all of the parameters, the choice is yours.

The forecast from this app comes from the best forecast source, the National Weather Service. If you want a forecast away from major population centers, this is the app to get. There is no interpolation from one city to another. This app gets its data from the National Weather Service where they produce a grid of forecast elements that take into account, elevation and proximity to water bodies. Each 5km grid point has its own unique forecast produced by meteorologists that pour over hundreds of observations nearby to get the best forecast possible for each point.

No ads ever. Just a weather forecast with numbers on a graph so you can see the trend over a 7 day period.
