New iPhone Application, NewsOK weatherwatch, Provides Vital Weather Information.
Norman, OK, February 12, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Oklahoma's website NewsOK.com is offering a new iPhone app called NewsOK weatherwatch, thanks in part to a solution provided by Weather Decision Technologies, Inc., (WDT), the leader in advanced weather nowcasting and forecasting services.
NewsOK's weatherwatch is a full featured weather app with tools to keep you informed of weather news, current conditions and forecasts.

The iPhone application's Severe section has the latest map, showing active Watches and Warnings, a listing of all School Closings, Road Conditions, and a Live Chat feature where you can chat with NewsOK users online about the weather conditions across the state of Oklahoma.
"You can get expanded current conditions and forecasts in the weather section and type in a new location to get up to date weather for any US city or small town," said Alan Herzberger, Digital Managing Editor for NewsOK. "The News section contains our latest weather video forecast and photos and our exclusive blog from Bryan Painter."
