Has Google just killed the need for a separate weather app on your iPhone or Android device? Perhaps, with the launch of an app-like weather widget that's now the first hit when you search for 'weather' on the iPhone or Android. It provides most of what you need from at-a-glance weather information, with a five-day forecast for your current location, or a place of your choosing. But it also provides a nifty little slider for giving you hour-by-hour conditions over a 12-hour period that includes humidity, chance of precipitation, temperature, and wind speed. Even the background color changes to mark the passing of the day.While the accuracy of Google's weather data remains to be seen, there's no doubt it's presented in a nice, simple interface that even a dedicated weather app would be proud of. Currently it's only available in English, but bookmark it to your home screen and you might never need another dedicated weather app again.
