Users can save favorites, search for stations by name, find stations near their current location, and view the station on a Map. Latest METAR and TAF data for stations being viewed by the user is also saved so that the weather information can be available if the application is launched when the device doesn't have a data connection.

If you are unfamiliar with a location's ICAO or IATA you can search for it based on your current location or by looking up the town name. All weather forecasts and observations are retrieved from the National Weather Service Aviation Digital Data Service (ADDS)
