what weather app auto updates your location and weather ?

Anyone know of an app that automatically updates your location and weather on the home screen? all the apps I've seen update the weather automatically but if u change ur location it doesn't provide weather updates for ur current locations. I think HTC weather auto updates ur location but it doesn't put the info on the home screen

weatherbug.
edit, I can't be sure tho, as I go into the app often so if it updates when I do that... well.

I don't know of any either. I started using WeatherBug right away and took off the HTC Sense hub (seems like a waste to me). I know in Sense you can have it locate you, but I don't know if the live tile updates with your location or not.

Yeah, both WeatherBug and The Weather Channel apps in Android will follow your location, but neither offer that setting in WP7.

i tried weather channel and weatherbug and they both do not update the location. weather channel does not even push to home screen. Weather bug does.

If you have an HTC phone, there's an update to the HTC Hub that now has a Live Tile and will update your location.

I don't use it since I like to get severe weather alerts and I don't think the HTC Hub does this.

Re: what weather app auto updates your location and weather ?

Could be something to do with the backend or even the GPS API or the lack of multitasking? Regardless - mine doesn't update either which kind of sucks since I am back and forth between Vancouver, BC and Seattle a lot.
