The venerable U.S. weather app Wx, named a Mac Gem by Macworld magazine, is now available for iPhone! Wx displays current conditions, forecasts, alerts, and radar for U.S. locations using high fidelity XML data from the U.S. National Weather Service. The app is designed for two specific types of customers: serious weather watchers who want detailed information and facts with no fuss, and casual users who want a fast, clean, and functional weather app that has low memory overhead and low CPU/battery usage.

Wx lets you choose your location on an embedded map, and uses that to setup custom forecasts based on the latitude and longitude of the location. Forecasts include a 7-day summary "point" forecast, and a 7-day “pro” forecast that graphs temperature (actual and apparent), dew point, relative humidity, cloud cover, wind speed, wind direction, gust speed, 12-hour probability of precipitation, 6-hour liquid precipitation amount, and 6-hour snow amount. These forecasts are about as good as it gets if you need to plan work, sports, hobbies, and outdoor activities based on upcoming weather. With their high spatial resolution, the point and pro forecasts are especially useful in coastal and mountainous regions, where typical zone forecasts can be inaccurate.

Wx also lets you receive current conditions data from nearby NWS observation sites (over 1700 available in the U.S. and its territories), get radar data from nearby NEXRAD radar sites, and receive warnings from nearby city- and county-based alert zones.

Wx lets you bookmark and setup weather maps for quick reference. Choose from some default NWS maps and images, or provide the URL for any map of your choice and load it right in the app! If you have preferred weather providers, you can load your favorite maps and images right in Wx and keep them handy.

Wx is crafted with attention to detail by a professional software developer with 29 years of experience, 15 years focused on developing weather software for OS X and 12 years writing apps for iOS devices. Wx has multiple levels of redundancy to handle severe weather events that can strain NWS servers, and even offers network settings for both Wi-Fi and cellular operation so that you can fine tune the app’s performance and bandwidth needs.

Wx is also available for the iPad and OS X. See hrtapps.com for more info.

Great so far. Lawbrd

I just got this app two days ago and like it very much. It has all the info I need and I really like the radar map!!! Very good job!!

Excellent

I think this is the second review Ive written since owning an iPhone (circa 2010). I have to write this one. My absolute favorite weather app of all time stopped working with iOS10. I thought that was it. But NO!! You did it!! Thank You!! Great app and so glad to have it back.

Worked around crash

iPhone version on my 6s Plus crashed every time on launch. iPad version works fine on my iPad Pro.I deleted the iPhone version from my iPhone and App library and re-down;oaded the Wx for iPhone app and reinstalled it. That fixed the problem. Works great now.

Wx is the best

Gives me just what I need in weather. Simple layout. Beautiful.

Greatness

Ive been a longtime user, and lover, of the desktop app. The recent upgrade while I liked it, seemed a slight step back, until now. The iPhone app behaves, and looks exactly like the desktop app. I got used to the new interface on the desktop, and after 5 mins on the iPhone I had everything just the way I wanted it. Great job, and fantastically useful app(s)

packed w/ great info

I love weather apps that decide to get their info directly from the source (NWS). great app for any weather enthusiast but minus one star just because it isnt as pretty as it could be. That being said, the UI is slick and is extremely smooth.

Indispensable app

This is a sweet little app that went straight to my dock. It gives me the simple summary that I want for most days, and radar and bulletins are just a tap away when weathers coming. The information is incredibly precise, because its pulled from the nearest sources. A really smart app with understated robustness thats there when you need it.
