    Smile RainAware iPhone App

    Hi all, I am a co-developer of the RainAware app. It just came out a few weeks ago. It estimates what time precipitation will arrive at your exact location.
    Up to 3 hours out. It updates every few minutes and recalculates to provide the most up to date times. It is mostly radar based, but also utilized other
    environmental and observational data. This is only version 1...but we have worked on it for a couple years now.

    The app is regularly $6.99, but we have a promotional contest right now whereby getting friends to "Like" us on Facebook gets you a FREE APP!

    We are giving away over 30 free RainAware apps to the top 30 or so "Facebook" like getters. See the post on our Facebook page to see how it works!

    We value feedback on our program. For winners of the app, we would appreciate constructive feedback using a contact form on our website.

    Thank you sir. It has been downloaded.

    Hopefully I will be able to test it at the end of this weekend.

    If it does well I should be able to get it out to my field crews.

    I have it and still testing it before I give a review. Only had a couple of rain events. But I am impressed so far. I has been accurate to +/-10mins. It does constantly update as the rain gets closer. But it appears to be radar based, meaning that if the radar is showing rain then the app thinks it is rain. But this is not always true.

    Will post a better review in a few days, just to dam busy here at the office...
