Dark Sky by Jackadam
Description**NEW: Now with full 24-hour forecasts, to help you plan your whole day!**Dark Sky can tell you at a glance exactly when it will rain (or snow) up to an hour in advance, so youre free to walk the dog or play another set of tennis and know youll stay dry. You can also explore the most beautiful weather animation youve ever seen, both forward in time or back. YOUR WEATHER, DOWN TO THE MINUTE Using GPS, Dark Sky is able to create forecasts for your precise location. And because Dark Sky focuses on the next hour, we are able to give you minute-to-minute predictions. STUNNING RADAR ANIMATIONS The same technology that powers Dark Skys predictions also allows us to make the worlds first perfectly smooth radar animation. Other apps show you a chunky slideshow that makes it nearly impossible to tell how storms are moving. But Dark Skys beautiful radar animation lets you see the actual path of the storm: how it moved in the past, and where its going in the future. NOTE: Dark Sky currently supports the United States, including Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico.

Tested today roughly 5 times for specific passing storms and it was within, at least, a minute or two each time (I wasn't watching the app at the exact starting times to know). Then-- I came home to another great update! (1.3) Thanks! +1 to Push Notifications, and location based storm suggestions. Now with 24hrs of forecasts! (5 stars) I wouldn't have recommended the first version. It had gorgeous radar and a slick interface, but with only an hour's forecast, it didn't help me decided whether I needed my umbrella in the morning. Now that they've added 24 hours of forecast info with the temperature and precipitation, it's a great app. I only used my old weather app for the day's temps and chance of rain. Dark Sky has that now plus really nice radar imagery and the Keeps getting better (5 stars) This may not be for everyone, and I wouldn't suggest it be anyone's only weather app, but in stormy regions, it does what it is intended to do and does it uniquely well. The developers obviously aren't content to take our money and sit on their laurels, either. They keep adding new features and functionality. Providing current temperature and now twenty-four hour precipitation forecasts have been excellent enhancements. Accuracy see
