Hello All, I am adding cellphone weather radar to my cell phone and my research with Verizon lists 5 options (MyCast 5, WeatherBug, AccuWeather,MyCast Weather, Weather Channel and Weathernews). Any comments on which is best overall and for Doppler Radar? Thanks, Bill.

Weather Channel
I have used the weather channel on my Verizon. Not bad--it's a little too small of a screen. It has worked pretty well for me in a pinch. I like the "animate" feature and the zoom. I'm having Sirius satellite weather radar put into my Raymarine (actually it's in-but the boat isn't yet). I'm looking forward to using it this year.

i use my blackberry and the weather channel for free
You can see the satellite and radar images, and you can zoom in. I can't animate mine because I haven't purchaed the extra service, but I'm happy with the free service.

Try the VHF for free
Most modern VHF radios have weather channels and you set it to alarm when they anticipate bad weather . I make it a point to show my students how to do it . On several lessons I have had it go off . One day I handed the radio to a student and told her that the alarm will go of any time now ,it did and she was amazed .How did I know channel 16 gave a security for a tstorm .
