WEATHER PROVIDERS
eWeather HD supports two weather agencies (providers): Intellicast.com (USA) and Foreca.com (EU). There were two reasons for this. The first one - the number of locations. With new european provider the number of locations in EU (and other countries,except the US) has been increased by more than 5 times and now eWeather supports more than 130,000 cities. The second reason is the accuracy. While intellicast.com is extremely accurate in the US, the foreca.com is the most trusted source for the EU. You may switch between providers by pressing the image (provider's logo) in the top left corner. Also you may add the location twice. You'll be asked to choose the provider.
DOPPLER RADAR (U.S. only)
Starting version 1.8 eWeather HD displays animated radar loops for the locations from the US. By default all the settings are initialized by the values that provide faster loading speed. Even on EDGE connection you'll wait only seconds to see the last image and about 40 seconds to load all other frames for a entire the US. On 3G it takes 10 seconds and on WiFi even less. In order to receive images with higher resolution go to options and override the settings for the desired connection type. Please remember that higher quality requires more time to download.
