Weather Information for AT

[Shutter]

I just released a new and updated version of an android app I wrote for my own thru-hike back in 2011.

You can search for a shelter by which mile you're at, view by state, or a large list like this site has.

Not to pull traffic away from that site, but my app is way more portable and uses an insanely low amount of data, which is important when you have spotty service in the mountains.

Enjoy all you 2013 NOBOs and SOBOs.

goedde2 Honest I did not concern myself with the prior posts. The weather is "going to happen" you will go for a day or two in total downpour, there might be snow.... you cannot fix it. It will happen. You need to be a postal worker. Wind and Nor easters are you biggest surprise, they do not happen all that much.

Just be prepared and try not to bug -out!

Shutter, thanks for the input, checked out your link. Ran into trouble because apparently your Android app needs to be accessed with Google Play Store, and I was not able to download it. I think that involves another set of instructions. Doesn't seem to like iOS, and/or my email account. The link below will help explain what I'm talking about. It's probably just me doing something wrong, but I like your idea. Thanks for sharing.

Funny you should mention that. I was a Postal Worker, now retired. I just thought making http://sophiaknows.com/atdb/weather.php available might be of some use. Always happy to share.

Goedde2: Sorry but this app was only written for Android phones. I've never owned an Apple product so in order to write for them would cost quite a bit of money and a steep learning curve which I'm not really prepared to do right at this moment. Plus, it would have to be 100% rewritten. Perhaps for 2014 if there is big demand I can port it over to iOS or even work with an iOS developer to get a version running. But for right now it's Android only. Thanks for your interest though.
