How to Buy iPad Weather Apps

A number of iPad weather apps are available through the App Store. The good news is plenty of them are free or reasonably priced. The iPad doesn't ship with a built-in weather app, and you're going to want one sooner or later. Read online reviews of the weather apps ahead of time or go to the App Store and start browsing.
