SUMMARY: The best weather app for the iPhone

Weather apps are already all over the place in the app store and the iPhone even comes pre-packed with a simple version. My-Cast Weather is an app that is looking to change the game by providing an interface that is animated and easy-to-read while still offering a large amount of data and information. Right when the app opens, it asks for your location and then immediately brings up an animated representation of the current weather in the area.

The app offers detailed graphs and forecasts for any location that you input. Another great feature of the app is the various maps that can be accessed. Users can view a weather map with options to choose conditions, temperatures and more as well as cloud maps and an animated radar. The app also offers a Severe weather tab to notify you of the latest developments that should be watched. There is really only one thing that seems to be missing from the app and that is the addition of push notifications for severe weather.

Aside from that, the app is a great replacement for other weather apps and should have been included by default on the iPhone. It's priced reasonably in the app store and worth every penny. Check it out.
