 How My-Cast Works

Mobile My-Cast Features:

  • My-Cast Personal Radar allows you to see approaching precipitation or storms and take action before it hits.
  • Hourly forecasts for your precise locations updated 8 times per day.
  • Longer-term forecasts to help you plan your week.
  • Almanac data gives you daily records and averages.
  • Only for the locations you care about!

The keys to My-Cast are personalized and precise weather for your specific locations or job sites. My-Cast creates the current day's forecast by combining our proprietary, high-resolution weather forecasting system with National Weather Service data and updating the information every three hours. Using patent pending technology,

My-Cast personalizes radar imagery by marking and centering your chosen location on the map. You can also animate the radar to see the direction of storms, helping you to judge whether it's safe to continue your outdoor activity.

Set up as many locations as you wish. Virtually everything you see with My-Cast on the Web is available on a wireless phone. Once you subscribe to the mobile service you can easily set up locations on the phone by entering a zip code or city name.

 How Do I Get Mobile My-Cast?
 
    ...It's easy. 
If you don’t have one already,  buy one of the following phones: Motorola i730, i88s, i85s, i58. 

To order a phone, click here: Make sure you select a "Total Connect Data Plan" in addition to your voice plan. This plan enables you to access Internet-based services from Java Applications, including My-Cast. With this plan, instead of paying for “minutes,” as you do with voice, you pay for kilobytes. Kilobytes are a measurement of data passing to and from you phone as you use Internet services. My-Cast uses approximately 10 kb of data to view a radar image and weather for a specific location.  You must purchase these plans when ordering your Nextel phone.
