    I've used WeatherBug, WeatherEye and the Accuweather BB web signal push. I'm currently using AW, since it's a web short cut and uses only minimal memory. WB and WE are both about 650k +/-. All are free, and there are some other free ones as well.

    I think the top choices would be:

    WeatherEye, gives a homescreen and easy access to 3-5 day forecasts.
    WeatherBug Direct, very customizable and you get weather alerts with home screen icons plus an animated radar, via the web browser.

    WeatherEye - OTA link, all day every day. It is simple, efficient
    and has a small footprint.

    AccuWeather Push is hands down the best, all the others are a complete pain in the rear to troubleshoot

    If you use a BlackBerry Bold, give this customized version of Weatherbug a shot - its outstanding!

    http://blackberry.weatherbug.com/bold/bold.jad

    Its still early and there is some optimization to be done, but this app is a winner (and FREE!).

    Note: BlackBerry Maps MUST be installed for this app to function properly!

    I've been "stuck" in PA for 40 years, except 4 years of college. I didn't think of it at the time, but Accuweather was formed by a bunch of Penn State grads, so it could be a PA think in another way.

    For accuweather how often is it updated? Isn't push weather from blackberry only updated like twice a day? I'm currently using WE.

    For WB to work, how do you get blackberry maps installed?

    I use the AccuWeather app, but used to work there, so I might be slightly biased. It's a good app and works well.
