    Default Local weather App?

    Does anyone know if there's a good Weather App to use to get radar of weather in the WDW area? One of the TV stations near my home has a great Weather App and I was looking for something local to WDW that could help us "see" rain when we're at the parks. Thanks!

    I use Weather Bug Elite on my phone. I like it. You can add as many locations as you'd like.

    Fox 35 out of Orlando has a free weather app with radar for both Android and iPhone.

    The Weather Channel has another one that works well. I would see what free app's there on you device and preview them.

    You can download them to see if you like them, and if not just delete them and start all over.

    It sounds like a lot of work but sometimes necessary to get the right one that works for you.

    Hope this helps...

    I've been using 1Weather. The basic app is free and allows me to track weather in six different geographic locations - I can delete or add locations as I need. Right now, one of the locations I always have is Orlando. The app provides curent weather and temps as well as 7 day forecasts; radar; and severe weather alerts.

    DH uses wunderground to check radar on his phone. I'm not sure if is an app or if he just saved the link on the home screen.

    Set it for 'Lake Buena Vista' for an even more accurate reading.
