NOAA Weather Center 1.2.0
Get all the weather information you need more>> Get all the weather information you need
NOAA Weather Center widget is a powerful, and fun way to get all the weather information you need. Just enter your address, city, or zip code and you get instant access to animated radar, forecasts, current conditions, and important weather alert bulletins.
All of the data comes straight from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations National Weather Service.
The NOAA Weather Center widget gets all of its data from NOAAs National Weather Service, which is a United States government agency (see the disclaimer for more information). That means that it should work almost anywhere in the United States or its territories.
However, since it also uses the service at GeoCoder.us to get location data (translating your address or city into latitude and longitude coordinates), it wont work in places that GeoCoder.us does not have the necessary information for.
Enhancements
- Fixes for broken 7-day forecast, also loads forecast faster now.
- Internal code changes that reduced clutter and file size.
