This main page features most of the basic information you’ll need, including the temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and Feels Like temperature. You’ll also notice an overview of the weather for yesterday and tomorrow.

The 10-Day Forecast is great as it provides a basic overview of the coming 10 days while providing the option to tap on each day and access even more details. From this screen you can see high and low temperatures, UV Index, Sunrise and Sunset times, and more.

 

Severe Weather Notifications

Weather reports are available in an hourly format as well, offering even greater levels of detail as the day unfolds.

The Alerts section will provide you with any severe weather warnings for your local area, and you can also set up Weather Alert Notifications so that you’ll receive a heads up should things turn sour.

I’m a little disappointed by the absence of any social media sharing features as I think this would be a great addition, particularly when it comes to warning your friends and family of any impending storms or hurricanes.

Aside from this, KSL Weather is a top-notch weather forecasting app!
