AccuWeather for iPad

Price: Free

AccuWeather for iPad by AccuWeather, Inc. brings you all the current and upcoming weather conditions to your iPad.

With this app you'll have access to long-range and hourly weather information. There are pushed severe weather alerts so you are always in the know, and interactive Apple Maps.

You'll also be able to customize this app by picking your display theme and translating the information into a number of different languages. Share weather details with your friends and family through social networks.

The pushed severe weather alert is a great feature that can be customized for your home location. They are very easy to read and are visible even from your home screen and lock screen. You can also find them in the notifications center. These severe weather alerts may include severe wind, rain, ice, snow, or thunderstorms.

The Lifestyle Forecasts are meant to help you when it comes to planning your day, activities, and your health.

As for the current conditions you'll find such details as the temperature, UV index, visibility, relative humidity, wind gusts/speed, the RealFeel Temperature, and more. For an interactive twist you'll find the radar, which overlays the Apple Maps. You have the ability to pin your contacts in order to check out their current conditions.

AccuWeather for iPad was updated on Nov. 21, 2012 and currently has 9,600 customer ratings with an average rating of four and a half out of five stars.

I found this to be a very well-rounded weather app that gives you all the details you need weather-wise plus that extra bit more. The Lifestyle Forecasts were great for helping you plan outdoor activities.

For: iPad with iOS 5.0 or later
