Other than OMWeather, I'm a little surprised that a more robust weather app hasn't been developed/released. (unless I just haven't found it yet...)
I use My-Cast on my mobile phone (scp8400) pretty much constantly, especially during times of severe weather, and the NIT just begs for a similar type of app.
Does anyone know if any 'larger' weather apps are in the pipeline anywhere?
As a widget-type app, OMWeather is great and I like how it's always available right there on the desktop. Using MyCast as an example to compare to however, it lacks a number of things.
No GPS support.
No severe weather alerts.
No severe weather info.
No radar loops.
No informational maps such as windspeed, dew points, lightning strikes, etc...
Pilot MyCast goes even further by adding a number of items pilots need such as raw metar and taf data, wind speeds aloft, icing and turbulence maps, etc
I personally found OMweather to be a very nice program. The only thing I found is that I don't think it showed actual "current temperature", just the highs and lows that had been 'forecasted'. Am I incorrect in this?

I hope we will make GPS support and weather alerts in next stable release of OMWeather - 0.20
