One of the things that always bugged me about Apple’s Weather application is it didn’t know where I was. If I’m travelling in some location and want to know the weather I have to go through the hassle of setting up a city.

That frustration led me to check out the Weather application from The Weather Channel. It does a lot more than what I need and is a great tool for hard core weather junkies. It does provide two click access to weather in my current location. A feature I love.

Check it out and let me know if you know of a better weather application.

  1. I agree with you about Apple’s. I tried bot Accuweather and Weather Channel’s over a few weeks and decided to go with Accuweather – thought the radar works better. The UI is better. Try it out.

  2. All right, I’m trying it now. Thanks

  3. Hey the Accuweather application isn’t bad. The thing that I immediately like about it is it feels faster. Loading times and location resolution seem to happen much faster than the weather channel application.
