WAND WX app review: dedicated weather forecasting for residents of Illinois

Reviews

Introduction

If you should happen to live in Illinois then this iPhone and iPad app is designed just for you. Within this app you’ll find up to 10 days’ worth of advance weather forecasting as well as severe weather notifications, live radar map imagery, and many more great features.

This is a very solidly developed app with a ton of functionality and a very common style of interface that I’m confident you can rely on for consistently accurate weather forecasts.

This is a great development which has clearly been designed with a great deal of expertise, and I think that the Illinois residents amongst you are definitely going to benefit from having a dedicated meteorological service such as this.

Dedicated Weather Forecasting for Illinois

The Map section of WAND WX essentially doubles up to serve as the main home screen for the app, and this is the first thing you’ll see upon first starting it up.

The Map section serves a threefold purpose, enabling you to view the past and future movement of various weather fronts as they make their way across your region, in addition to displaying the current weather conditions and an overview of the weather for today, yesterday, and tomorrow.

If you’re looking for information that covers a broader timeframe then you’ll definitely want to check out the 10 Day section. In here you’ll be able to see all kinds of information, including a detailed summary of what you can expect on each evening for the coming week or so.

 

Alerts and Other Features

If you’re unfortunate enough to live in a region that is prone to severe weather conditions then you should be sure to make good use of the Alerts function as this will enable you to receive Push notifications whenever storms, flash floods, or any other nasties are headed in your direction.

The Locations menu in this app also enables you to save multiple locations, so this is ideal for also keeping an eye on your more vulnerable out-of-town relatives who might need a heads-up if they’re due to face some bad weather over the coming days.
