Sure, the basic weather app on your iPhone may be able to give you a week-long forecast with about 30% accuracy, but the Dark Sky App gives you short-term precipitation forecasts based on your exact location, between a half hour and an hour into the future. Being informed of the weather conditions next weekend is fine, but knowing where the rain is at in the next half hour is crucial to your morning commute or on the way to your son’s little league baseball game. Utilizing state-of-the-art weather forecasting technology, Dark Sky provides you with accurate, hard to come by rain and snow predictions up to the minute, in easy to understand layman’s terms alongside an interactive hi-resolution radar animation. Available for download in the Apple App Store.
