More apps that can help you get through winter
We recently posted a link to a CNN Tech story from last year about apps that can help you get through the winter storms that keep raging every few days or so.
Well, the Midwest and New England are in the midst of yet another wintry event. With little relief in sight, we offer a few more apps here, available on iOs and Android and other devices, that could help people get through this cold mess:
WeatherBug (left)boasts slide navigation, interactive maps, severe weather alerts and other tools to help you prepare.
Available for Android and iOS operation systems as well as Windows and Blackberry, AccuWeather updates current weather conditions every 15 minutes or so.
Eye in the Sky (left) is a simple, yet effective and customizable app for reporting the weather in your location.
The Weather Channel’s app may be the most comprehensive: it’s available for iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Windows phone devices, iPad and Kindle. You can get et weather information for any U.S. city or ZIP code via text message. Other alerts such as severe weather forecasts are also available.
