> There is certainly no shortage of weather apps. Most apps provide overall information about the day’s high and low temperature and the chance of precipitation. The app Dark Sky is different. Sure, it provides detailed weather information. Where the app shines though is when it predicts rain or snow, down to the minute, at your exact location. The app uses your phone’s GPS and it works exceptionally well
