Finally found my favorite weather app after years of searching. I've been looking for an app that shows weather data like the old weathergraph face on pebble. I love how the input works. I love there's no ads to bully me into paying, it actually makes me want to buy the silver/gold. I love the overlays. The only detail I would possibly add, would be a value at the high and low points on the graph on the days ahead. So I could quickly see what the highs and lows are going to be.

Not sure what's going on. I've had the subscription for 2 years now going on 3 and this year the models seem way off for predicting storms/rain. They weren't perfect to begin with. But about 3 days in advance I could get a good idea. Now it's just random where it decides it's going to rain and have storms that never matches up? 5 stars for the 2 good years. But I might have to cancel my subscription now and look elsewhere unfortunately.

Hi, we don't modify the raw data from the meteorological organizations, so if something has changed it will be within the weather models themselves. Thanks.

Something went wrong. As a predictive app, Flowx is not to be used for current conditions e.g. temp.. However, something recently changed, and the data is way, way off. Temp models are off now by 5-10 degs on the free version. It still has decent wind forcasts, but otherwise, it is useless for planning purposes. Also, the developer is a coplete d@# horrible communication skills. I am no longer interested in purchasing...

Hi, Flowx doesn't modify the raw data from the meteorological organizations, so if something has changed it will be within the weather model itself. Users can improve their temperature predictions by comparing different models and learning the bias for their own location. Thanks.
