What is Local METARs?
No Touch Aviation Weather is a simple app designed for pilots to get detailed, translated METAR reports from the closest station without any map scrolling or typing. The app provides nearby METAR reports sorted by distance or bearing from the current location, or by the age of the report. The app can fetch the last hour's reports to look for trends at the stations of interest. The app also provides the option to limit the reporting stations to 25, 50, or 100 statute miles.
1. Tap any of the station reports in the table and you will get a clear, legible translation of the METAR, plus the calculated Relative Humidity, the estimated Cloud Base (from the standard lapse rate), the Station Elevation, and the estimated Density Altitude at the station.
2. Press a button and the reports get filtered to show only the latest report from each station.
3. Of course, you get all the nearby METAR reports, sorted by Distance or Bearing from your current location, or by age of the report.
4. Run the app and up pops a detailed, translated METAR report from the closest station.
5. The app will fetch the last hour's reports, so you can look for trends at the Stations you are interested in.
