Over the last twenty years or so, the most common question I have received is, "What weather app do you recommend?" And, over the last twenty years or so, my answer has been none of them.

Most weather apps provide model output, computer generated forecasts unvetted by human meteorologists and many of us in the business call them crap apps.

However, for farmers and ranchers, I’ve found a few apps that will actually be quite helpful.

None of these are paid endorsements, just free suggestions.
