In a recent review by PC World RadarScope by Base Velocity was recommended as the best radar application for the iPhone / iPod Touch.
If you are interested in more than just the basic weather conditions for your location, then ‘put over 140 NEXRAD Doppler radars in your pocket’ and check out RadarScope.
The application allows you to view information from NOAA’s public NEXRAD Level 3 data feed giving you the latest base reflectivity, base velocity, and storm relative velocity data from any NEXRAD radar site in the lower 48 United States.
With the application you can:
Pinch or stretch to zoom in and out.
Drag your finger around the map to scroll.
Tap the radar sweep button in the toolbar to switch radars.
Plot your current position.
Display the names of over 25,000 cities and towns
RadarScope is available at:
Apple Store for $9.99
