While most of us check for the weather conditions of the city before we go there, Weather forecast during extreme conditions like hurricane, floods and earthquakes is really really helpful. With Hurricane Irene on the prowl, it becomes necessary to be aware of the changing weather conditions before hand. Here is an Android app that gives you ten day and hourly weather forecast for 130 000 locations across USA.
Developed by Elecont software, this app features the Doppler radar map to show rain, snow, and hail clouds movement on Google Maps around your location in real time with 10 minutes delay. Elecont Weather also provides information about latest earthquake from all over the world. You can view the last earthquakes in a list or on a map. You can also filter earthquakes by their magnitude and distance from the city.
