Weather App*ropriate

Deciding whether to pack sandals or hip boots, bikini or burka? Here are two great weather apps that will help you navigate the upcoming weather forecast in style.

Partly Cloudy - The interface is designed like a traditional clock face. Moving the hand around the dial changes the various colors and textures representing time, temperature, precipitation level, wind force, the day's high/low and the weather situation (rainy, cloudy, partly cloudy). All of which is updated in real time. Partly Cloudy is available for 99¢ in the iTunes App Store.

WTHR - Minimalism at its finest. Taking its cue from designer Dieter Rams this app uses an ultra simple interface to tell the user the current weather plus the upcoming five-day forecast. WTHR is available for $1 in the iTunes App Store.
