What weather app have you been using on your Droid phone or a droid tablet and think it is the best.
I have XM weather on my Raymarine chartplotter and when it works is great but been having a problem with it lately and for the cost if it not easy to use than I need tto ffind some thing as good but reliable aand maybe a monthly on and off when not needed for the long trips,I will be calling Raymarine very soon to see why it is so much trouble getting it to work and it has worked great in the past but this year it's a problem.
I like the XM because it shows all the weather right on the chartplotter like rain wind lightning and wave hight.

I use three. Weather.com for radar. A free NOAA Marine text forecast app for the next few days forecast. Finally I have bookmarked my local NOAA bouy data for real time wave heights and wind direction. The last one is the final go/no go check before heading off shore, the first one is what we check when watching the afternoon thunderstorms.

I use the NOAA Marine text forecast, and I use Weather Underground app. By the way, I have an iPhone, but I'd imagine you can get both on the droid.

i use most of the above for weather. I also use MyRadar app for iPhone for real-time radar view of weather. Works rather well and is free. I only coastal/bay cruise so nothing too powerful needed for me. Very basic.

For inshore sailing I use Marine Weather Pro by Bluefin. It provides data from weather bouys and stations as well as radar overlays. It just works on my smart phone within signal range.
