    I use WeatherBug, it's just what I'm used to. Plus I have various locations saved, for a quick glance at what the weather is doing at home, etc. It also has pretty good radar coverage, and hourly forecasts.

    Doubles as a spare "key" if you're locked out of the truck, too.

    I use an app called MyRadar Pro... basically a radar app... you can also get basic forecasts and such for any area... You can also upgrade to be able to see individual radar stations in detail.

    Wish there was an app that would use your route internet consideration... if something is brewing 400 miles down the road it might alert you.

    Love the weather rock... had one of them at a camp I used to work at during the summers.

    Stick your hand out the window. If it's wet, it's raining. If turns white, it's snowing. If it turns blue, it's freezing. If you can see it clearly, it's sunny. If you can't see it, it's foggy.

    Can't get any more reliable than that.
