What is WeatherBug?
By AWS Convergence Technologies
What is it?
WeatherBug provides live weather data and maintains a mesoscale network of weather stations and runs in teh notification tray and background of Windows. At present, the desktop application of WeatherBug is designated for U.S. ZIP codes only. Non-U.S. users can also receive RSS global weather feeds via email or through their RSS reader instead of using the WeatherBug app.
Why should I uninstall WeatherBug?
If not being actively used, WeatherBug should be disabled from running as it utilizes needed PC resources even when the system is idled. It is configured to auto start and run in the background when your PC boots. It is recommended if you want to keep running WeatherBug, you should start it manually when needed.
Typical installation path: C:\Program Files\aws\weatherbug\
Description from AWS Convergence Technologies“WeatherBug manages and operates its own weather network that pin points weather conditions in your neighborhood like no other weather service can! WeatherBug Tracking Stations provide live weather information. Other weather companies' "live" data is often an hour or more old. Along with the National Weather Service alerts, WeatherBug issues additional more localized alerts.”
