Overcast is the simple, beautiful new weather app from Backlight Software.
Overcast is designed to give a very quick overview of the current weather conditions and forecasts for the day and for the week. Overcast gives you access to the information you require by removing access to the information you don't even care about.
Overcast is also designed to be accessible. Voiceover is fully supported and the typography is designed to be easy on the eyes.
Weather data is provided by the kind folks at forecast.io. This data comes from a variety of sources, and is made more accurate by fancy statistical modeling. In many locations, hyper-local forecast information is available. Now, you can know that it will be raining in 13 minutes, and the rain will end 12 minutes after that!
That's it. It's just that simple.

No IAP?

Um, seriously beautiful and minimalistic weather app... other than the big honkin' ad right at the bottom. No IAP purchase to disable ads? Guess my search continues for the perfect weather app.
Overcast rules!

Love the simplicity of this app, along with its beautiful interface. My favorite feature is how it shows the weather of your current location and displays just the info I care to look at. The red warning bar is another great feature. Very nicely done!
The ads really get in the way.

The app is fine, I guess, but the ads really get in the way. And there’s no way to buy a “pro” version or the like to get rid of the ads. I’ve already deleted it.

This weather forecasting app seems to be very accurate right down to the minute
Just Right

It needs a few additions like "feels like" temp and humidity, but other than that it's just right.
So-So

I appreciate the app's simplicity, but it truly irritates me that when you expand the "Next 24 Hours" section, it only displays the next 12 hours! Completely misleading, and very frustrating if you need information about the 12 hours following. I would prefer simply using a shortcut link to the website, and may in fact switch to doing that in lieu of using the app immediately after posting this review.
