Check out your local Weather!

Skies isn’t just another weather app. It’s your active life in a weather app – at the drop of a pin! Skies gives you a whole new way to integrate weather forecasts with the places and activities that are important to you.

Whether it’s at your home, on the golf course, at the beach or on a mountaintop, only Skies with dynamic geo-location technology gives you a weather “Pin” you can simply drop and drag anywhere on a map to get the forecast for right where you want it, anywhere in the world.

Key Features

• Access global weather forecasts dynamically synced to find and follow your exact location using iPhone geo-location, and automatically update to your location every 3 kilometers, even as you move.
• Get up to 6 days of forecasts for your current location or any of your saved favorite locations either by the day, by the hour for up to 24 hours, or by current hour.
• View a map and get weather for anywhere in the world simply by dropping a pin on the map.
• Create and save personal “favorite” locations, and personalize each favorite with a photo from your iPhone camera or photo library, or a screen shot.
• See local-area Doppler radar anywhere at any resolution, with full pan and zoom (radar feed currently available for USA only).
• Automatically receive National Weather Service severe weather alerts for each of your USA favorites.
• Share forecasts and favorites easily with another iPhone via Bluetooth, or with anyone via Email.

Precision Weather Forecasts – Right Where You Are

When it comes to precision weather forecasts, Skies is second to none. Unlike other weather apps that locate you in a generalized area, like a city or zip code, and then provide forecasts for weather reporting stations that may be miles away, Skies combines precise geo-location finding with hourly-refreshed forecasts derived from a variety of weather data sources. This geo-located weather data gives you forecasts exactly for where you are – even when you’re moving – and for the precise locations you want to monitor.
