AccuWeather has launched a new Apple iPhone application which provides mobile phone users radar and satellite weather. The free app can be used to find local hour-by-hour forecasts.

AccuWeather Inc has deployed a new application for the Apple Inc iPhone and iPod touch which provides local and national forecasts. The app uses the iPhone's GPS ability to retrieve local weather information.

"AccuWeather forecasts are available from coast to coast and around the world," The company said in a statement on its Web site.

Apple iPhone comes with built-in GPS which the app uses to connect to its service to display local radar and satellite weather. The app also provides five-day local forecasting.

"See if severe weather is approaching with AccuWeather snow, ice, and rain radar; plus check out the latest weather conditions and get forecasts for the next 6 hours or the next 15 days with the AccuWeather Calendar," The company said.

The iPhone app can also alert mobile phone users of local government weather alerts such as tornados, major storms, snow and ice. The best part about this new mobile phone application is that it's absolutely free from Apple's app store.

To run the smartphone app, mobile users must have iPhone version 2.2 software install.
