Going Mobile With The WeatherBug Mobile Website
By now, most of you are likely aware that WeatherBug provides a large number of mobile applications for the latest smart phones out there. The iPhone, Android, Pre, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, and Nokia – all included. But what about for those who are not looking to install software directly? Perhaps you are merely borrowing someone’s phone for a quick update – what then?
Enter Mobile WeatherBug. Using any modern mobile browser, you can browse over to m.weatherbug.com and instantly be plugged into a fantastic Mobile WeatherBug site that will give you all of the localized weather data you could ever hope for.
Just enter your desired location into the box and you’ll receive a screen that looks a lot like this below.
From here, we can utilize the provided green pull down menu to select radar choices, a detailed forecast, in addition to other WeatherBug features.
