- VeebyesExplorer IIBought a smartphone more for being able to get a radar shot on the go than anything else. Before that the ham radio VHF helped out more than a couple times talking to somebody in the area who did have radar. Saved our hides out in the middle of Kansas one day.

I use NOAA as my primary source.
But, I like Weather Underground for the ease and more local forecast of things like wind speed and precipitation amount.
My cell phone came with AccuWeather. Their radar screen sucks. It's covers to much area and can't be expanded or zoomed in to the area where you need it to be.
I also have a weather radio in my TT that I use for emergency warnings . - RoyBExplorer IIBeen using INTELLICAST and WUNDERGROUND for years here... Intellicast is a much larger memory hog program for me however -
Roy Ken - Dick_AExplorerI have used intellicast for many years and have found the forecasts to be fairly accurate.

NOAA is the horses mouth. Everything you need to know & much more. You just need to be able to decifer it all. Some of the secondary weather sources do a good job of repackaging NOAA info & making it look pretty. - scrubjaysnestExplorerWe've used it for several years.
- dewey02Explorer IIExcellent - Thanks much.
- LynnandCarolExplorerYes, we have also been using it. The one below give temp/stats if you hover your mouse...
