While looking through weather apps, I found one I like called MeteoEarth. It's a neat little app that allows you to view weather on both a global and local scale. With 2D and 3D versions you can view current weather, precipitation, temperatures, wind, and tropical storm information. It allows you to view weather from past days as well as its predictions for the next day or so. If you take all the weather filters of off and view the earth at night, it shows you sources of light. You can easily pinpoint major cities this way.
Unfortunate things about this app: though it is great in its function, it does like to show a lot of adds. A subscription to premium removes ads and gives extra features, which would be a good option for anyone looking to use in the classroom. It also can be slow to show movement in cloud coverage and precipitation once the play function is selected.
