Android 4.2 or later is required.
Changes:
This release brings significant enhancements to the total weather model data accessible via a native Android interface. In addition to COD, two more options are available that bring greater diversity in models and parameters within models. On the rare occasion COD is having availability issues they also serves as a partial backup. Both interfaces are very similar to the existing COD interface.
- New interface to SPC SREF model data. SPC tab, bottom row, left icon. (

- New interface to NCEP model data. SPC tab, bottom row, right icon. (
http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/model-guidance-model-area.php )
- SPC Compmap is now accessible on SPC tab via bottom row, center icon. It will be removed from the MISC tab in the future when new content is added to MISC tab.
- Models ( COD ) - GFS has been extended from 240 to 384
- For SPC convective outlook notifications, enhanced risk is now recognized - specifically if SPC conv otkl notif is on but slight risk is off it will now notify on ENH risk now.
- Support for share of animated gifs added to most activities that support animations: when an animation is playing, sharing will actually create and then share an animated gif instead of just the latest frame. A few limitations and/or notes that will be addressed in future releases:
this is not yet enabled for the default radar activity WXOGL
the actual creation of the animated gif does not yet occur in the background and thus the main UI thread will block for a few seconds while the animated gif is created.
the speed of the animation is controlled by the animation speed specified under settings and the animated gif also loops
To facilitate this feature a temporary file is written to sdcard/Download/wx_joshuatee_anim.gif . Future share requests will overwrite this file but in the meantime it can be renamed or accessed outside of WX
Please let me know if you have any issues or suggestions on this new functionality.
thanks,
Josh
