Reviews

Introduction

Offering up to 10 days' worth of advance weather forecasting in addition to severe weather notifications and live radar map imagery, this powerful iPhone and iPad app should provide everything that Rhode Island residents should ever need to make a fair assessment of the weather conditions every day of the week.

Dedicated Weather Forecasting for Rhode Island

I think you’ll most likely find yourself getting most of your information from the Map section of WJAR Radar. This section displays live radar map imagery so that you can track the past and future movements of various weather fronts as they make their way across your region.

This screen also displays the current conditions for your area, including the temperature, wind speed and direction, and a few more tidbits. Additionally, you’ll also see an overview of the conditions for today, yesterday, and tomorrow in an easily digestible bite size format.

If you’re looking for a little more detail in your weather forecasts then I’d recommend checking out the 10 Day and Hourly sections.

The 10 Day section features the high and low temperatures predicted for the coming week or so, and if you tap on a particular day you’ll be able to see even more information, including sunrise and sunset times, UV Index, chance of precipitation, and a summary of the forecasted conditions for the evening.

The Hourly section offers even more detail across the next 24 hours, displaying an in-depth breakdown of the hourly variances in temperature, chance of precipitation, and much more. Suffice to say, you’re going to find all you need and more to make an accurate daily judgment of the daily weather in your area!
