If you should happen to live in East Missoula, Montana or any of the surrounding regions then this is one iPhone and iPad app that you’ll definitely want to keep handy for up to 10 days’ worth of advance weather forecasts, severe weather notifications, and much more.

This is a very solid development with a nice basic interface design and a ton of content to keep you one step ahead of the weather, whatever the weather. I much prefer this kind of app to the standard iOS Weather widget, so would definitely recommend it to any of you who live in East Missoula.

Dedicated Weather Forecasting for East Missoula, Montana

KPAX WX has been designed to provide residents of East Missoula, Montana with a one-stop resource for local weather information, removing the need for you to use a potentially less reliable generic source for your daily and weekly forecasts.

The weather forecasting content is split up into a few different sections, with the primary two in my opinion being the Hourly and 10 Day sections, which cater to their respective timeframes.

The Hourly section is highly detailed and provides an hour-by-hour rundown of variances predicted over the next 24-hour period, covering things like the temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity, and chance of precipitation.

 

Enjoy Varying Levels of Detail

The 10 Day section doesn’t go into quite so much detail, but it does offer a few extras such as the UV Index, sunrise and sunset times, and even a brief prediction for each evening of the coming week and beyond.

What’s more, the Map section delivers radar maps of East Missoula and its surrounding vicinity with overlays for things like rain and snow, so this is great for those of you who prefer a more graphical approach to your forecasts.

If I could make just one minor complaint about this app it would be that there is no video or blog content. This is commonly featured in developments of this kind, courtesy of the supporting news station, but no such content is offered in KPAX WX.
