Check Out ‘Clear Weather’ for WebOS

Posted December 11, 2011, 3:25 p.m.

I ended support for my No-Nonsense Weather application for HP WebOS back in August after Hewlett-Packard announced it was terminating WebOS device operations. It is, however, open-source so it had the potential to live on.

Well, I’m happy to report that Jonathan Dale has picked up development and the application will live on as Clear Weather. He has just released his first new version, 0.7.0, which takes my application, adds some bug fixes, and adds support for the TouchPad and Pre 3. It’s off to a great start.

So if you have a WebOS device, make sure to check it out!
