The Weather Channel App Brings Back Colored Icons, 36-Hour Forecasts, Map Layers

The Weather Channel App has been updated to bring back several popular features.

Enjoy the best day possible with the most accurate forecast available. When you see the world through weather, It's Amazing Out There.

Favorite features:
• Trusted forecasts help you plan your day, week, or even the next hour.
• Social weather: Share your weather conditions with us! We will use that information to identify hard-to-predict spots to improve the forecast for those areas. Plus, whenever you report your weather, you can take and share a photo of your current weather. We’ll keep track of them so you’ll have a personalized weather history.
• Incredibly fast and accurate maps offer past and future radar.
• Push alerts & badges help make sure you know about the severe weather around you.
• From big storms to bizarre findings, stay up-to-date with the latest weather news and videos.
• Seasonal tools, like our airport delays module, cold and flu module, and pollen alerts, help you plan around the weather.
• Beautiful and easy to use. Perfectly aligned to the iOS 7 aesthetic.
• Amazing background photos match your location and current weather conditions.
• Navigation: swipe right to left to browse your saved locations, or swipe up and down to view the detailed forecasts and news stories.
• Check out detailed weather conditions by tapping the circle on the main screen. We have “feels like” temperature, sunrise time, sunset time, wind speed, humidity, UV index, visibility, dew point, and pressure.

• Colored weather icons are back (replacing the all-white ones)
