Reviews: What People Think About SkewTLogPro

Rating: 3/5
This app is a great concept, but for a pilot it falls short on much of why I use a skew chart in the first place. Namely on the visualization of items such as convective inhibition, LFC, CAPE, EL, etc. I mean it is a chart, so you would expect to easily view these items graphically on the chart itself. Instead you only see the numerical value on the side of the chart.
If this app were to simply add a line showing the adiabatic temperature values of a lifted parcel of air, it would deserve a 5-star rating.

This app is a really good tool for telling you what to expect with regard to current weather, and can help you improve your own forecasting. Using this app and learning enough to be able to understand all it has to offer ought to be part of being a pilot.
It's really fun to look out the window at any time of day, estimate the height of the clouds I see, and then get on SkewTLogPro and use the graph to see how close I estimated. The graphs always match the ceilings given by the 3 airports near here.
And the app's charts are a whole lot easier to read than NOAA Skew-T charts.

Great app with selectable features to suit many uses. Informative help menus minimize the learning curve, as well as responsive customer service. Makes the beauty and awe of our atmosphere more fantastic with insight in the palm of your hand. Access detailed models in the CONUS and around the world. I use it flying jets, props and gliders for the big weather picture and predicting formation of contrails to view from the ground as a hobby. The the Windy app, always something of interest, everyday.
