I use the WeatherBug app widget. Best for me with a very local station. Also, has lots of data and maps at a touch.

well ive read a lot of bad review recently about the weatherbug widget not updating. i was going to use twc but hate the ads and there isn't a paid version. its interesting that no one uses the stock weather widget. on sense some people used it cuz its integrated into the clock.

I have been using weatherbug on every pc/device I have ever owned.weather is like a hobby to me(I know,get a life)tried them all and weather bug is the best in my opinion.

i'll give weatherbug a try. i think the interface for the app is a bit clunky but if the data is better, i'll overlook it

**zmann** · 12-27-2010, 12:40 AM

I think the whole app is a beautifully app,love the graphics.smooth,great radar.check it out,you may agree.

I personally use the stock weather widget. Call me paranoid, but, since Blur is running 24/7 anyway, I don't really want a third party app running with it and doing the same thing.

So, why not put it to use since its already running, ya know?

Agreed, Accuweather is normally 4 or 5 degrees off compared to the news weather report. But, still gets the job done regardless. It still at least tells me when its raining, or is GOING to rain. Ha.

ya, i also noticed that the forecast doesn't show anything other than cloud cover or precipitation. meaning tomorrow in my area there is a wind advisory. and it says sunny

**johnnyshinta** · 12-27-2010, 04:54 AM

i think i'm going to stick with weatherbug. more accurate and much better widget

**stevewl** · 12-27-2010, 07:47 AM

Def like weatherbug, especially the alerts..

**johnnyshinta** · 12-27-2010, 11:47 PM

i tried weatherbug and dont particularly like it.

its disappointing that the stock widget is so inaccurate. i like that its a pop up not a seperate app

guess its weather.com

**Johnly** · 12-27-2010, 11:50 PM

BW, but it is off by one degree ha ha, so I have the ever best weatherbug elite enable when clicking on the 5 day : ) best of em both I think.

**johnnyshinta** · 12-28-2010, 12:04 AM

i don't want to pay for bw. but thanks for the input

**Johnly** · 12-28-2010, 12:27 AM

I will never get it, people spend premium bucks on a phone and plan and then a couple bucks is too much? Oh well.......

**Johnly** · 12-28-2010, 12:29 AM

The reason my droid X is bad *** is bucks spent on bad *** apps like LPP BW Power Amp on and on....I guess I am a software junkie ; )

**johnnyshinta** · 12-28-2010, 12:31 AM

i mean i knowi its a couple of bucks. but weather.com does the same thing for free. now i'll pay for tapatalk and soundhound and other things that i can't get for free

**Johnly** · 12-28-2010, 12:34 AM

No it don't. I assure you that. When I unlock my phone I get animations as good as sense. With elite I can tweak the **** out of it. Free is free for a reason. I like to throw a bone for the hard working devs and get the treats the freebies never see : )
