KFYR-TV Wx app review: dedicated weather forecasting for residents of Bismarck, North Dakota

Reviews

Introduction

If you should happen to live in Bismarck, North Dakota, or any of the surrounding regions then you’ll definitely want to check out this weather forecasting app for iPhone and iPad that provides up to 10 days’ worth of advance reporting in addition to severe weather notifications and loads more.

The best iPad apps for weather

This is a very solidly designed weather app that I think is going to serve the residents of Bismarck very well. The weather reports are presented in a handful of different formats depending on the timeframe you want to cover and the level of detail you require.

I’m a little disappointed that there are no Video or Blog sections in this app as these are sometimes included by developers in comparable developments. Either way, working with the KFYR-TV studios on this one has definitely yielded a great end result, so be sure to check it out.

Dedicated Weather Forecasting for Bismarck, North Dakota

KFYR-TV Wx has been developed to provide residents of Bismarck, the capital city of North Dakota, with a dedicated source of weather forecasting that can be relied upon for consistently accurate information every day of the week.

The developer has done a great job of providing some pretty decent features which provide everything from a basic rundown of the current weather conditions to live radar map imagery which shows in great detail how different weather fronts are making their way across the region.

View 10 Days' of Weather Forecasts

The meat and potatoes, if you will, of this app is to be found in the 10 Day and Hourly sections, as these provide some of the more generic presentation of meteorological information that you’ve probably come to expect from other apps such as the standard iOS Weather widget.

Within these sections you’ll find all manner of information, including the usual high and low temperatures, chance of precipitation, and wind speed and direction. This is in addition to further detail such as UV Index, sunrise and sunset times, and forecasts for each evening of the coming week and beyond.
