UPDATE: All should be well now. Just download the 1.3 update to Radar In Motion and the maps will work again. Plus, you’ll get all of the features mentioned in the post below. Enjoy and let me know if you have any problems!
The National Weather Service’s server subtly changed something about their website, resulting in Radar In Motion no longer working. I have already submitted the fix as a part of Version 1.3 of the application, which is awaiting approval from Apple. As soon as it is approved, Radar In Motion will work again (and have a lot of new features, too). You will need to download the update when it becomes available. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I have made Radar In Motion 2.6.1 available for download. It fixes some graphical errors including the inability to click on “Show Border.”
Also, thanks to all of you who have sent me encouraging messages in response to my earlier post about negative reviews. I have been trying to reply to each of you individually, but time spent at work has prevented me from being able to reply to everyone. Know that I am trying, though! But thank for all of your positive feedback, it is very much appreciated.
Watch for Radar In Motion 1.3 for iPhone just around the corner. It adds a huge list of new features that I will mention when it is available in the app store, hopefully later this week!

I know many people have had questions about the iPhone app and I’m trying to collect them in one place. Here is a list of frequently asked questions about Radar In Motion for iPhone. If it does not answer your question or you have problems, please contact me. When you do, make sure you answer the following questions:
- Are you using the Dashboard widget or the iPhone app?
- What version of the widget/app are you using?
- What is your version of Mac OS X (widget) or the iPhone OS (iPhone)?
- What map are you trying to load?
Answering those questions will make it easier for me to solve any problems you are having.

Now available is Radar In Motion 2.6. It finally fixes the NOAA maps and makes them completely available again. It also fixes some issues with international and US maps from Weather.com. Thanks to Jon Steuernagle for finding and fixing the Weather.com issues before I even knew they were there!

The Weather Channel changed some things in the format of their pages, meaning Radar in Motion broke if you tried to access a new map or load the widget for the first time. I’ve compensated with Radar In Motion 2.5.3. I know that I’m rather unresponsive to emails and for that I apologize. Work and life in general keeps me very busy. Please know that I do plan to keep working on the widget for the foreseeable future, so when major issues like that come up, I will certainly fix them as soon as I have time. Apologies to those for whom the widget didn’t work for the last few days. I think all should be well now!

I have been getting many messages that Radar In Motion is no longer working. Unfortunately, I won’t be back in front of my Mac until tomorrow evening to see what is going on. If Radar in Motion isn’t working for you at all, don’t worry, I’m hoping to look into it this weekend and get it back to a working state. I suspect weather.com changed their format or something like that.

By the way, I’m aware of the NOAA issues. I’m working on them as we speak and hope to have a fixed version out very soon.

Now that I have Leopard, I can actually try Radar In Motion on it. It led to one more fix, so here is Version 2.5.2. This version also fixes the map of France.

I heard rumors that Leopard caused some Radar In Motion problems. It is my hope that version 2.5.1 takes care of these issues. If not, please let me know.

After a break that was way too long, I have returned with Radar In Motion 2.5 for Dashboard. This new version has the following changes:
- The end of “Invalid Location!” messages thanks to the PopularData ZIP code database. They are providing this database free with no restrictions, so please take the time to go thank them if you have a chance.
- A location highlight box. Hold down the shift key and double-click anywhere on the map to put a small, red box. This can help you quickly locate a specific location on the map. To delete the box, hold down the shift key and double-click within the red box.
Enjoy this new version!
