weather radar for scooteristas
« on: September 19, 2015, 11:23:06 AM »
Cell phones are handy for checking the direction and timing of a rain or snow front when you're out scooter riding.
I see that I have about 2.5 hrs of goofing before the rain rolls in....30 miles from home. No worries.
My daughter is proud of me for joining the 21st century....though I preferred the other one. Notre Dame and the Raiders and the Red Skins had great teams in those days..

I use an app called My Radar, gps location moves with you and the weather is animated. Great for those 50% chance days.
