I normally don't use the weatherbug but the new version specific to the storm is pretty slick. I first installed the one from blackberry.weatherbug.com/download . I was able to download and install fine. But the menu option wouldn't appear to move it from the downloads folder to the home screen. So I searched and found that this new "pretty" version for the Storm.
Ok, Im new the the bb thing, and do not understand the .jad files. if you want to install this on your bb 9530, how do you do it? Sorry if it sounds dumb, but bbdb will not see it.

Open that link from your browser on your Storm and the file will download and install.
Well, you'll have to click the download button first....
k, mine is not working for some reason. It saying that error 503: Service Unavailable unable to handle your request due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server.

Maybe they're getting ready to update it again. Or doing server maintenance.
One recommendation on Weatherbug: Set a blank .mp3 or .wav as the notification sound. It seems that no matter what you have the profile set to (silent, vibrate, etc) Weatherbug will play the notification sound, at max volume, for every weather alert. It took me 20 minutes at 2AM to figure out that the loud beep coming from my BlackBerry every 5 minutes was Weatherbug letting me know it was foggy... over and over again.
I actually saw weatherbug for the storm in a youtube video and have been looking for it since. Amazing find! Thanks a lot.
Edit: In response to the post above, its interesting... I see what you're saying though. The storm's been vibrating over and over... saying that there's an "Alert". That's... a bit weird, no?
Hmm, I installed it from the link above OTA and it refuses to open. Instead, it locks up my phone so that it's unresponsive and I have to do a battery pull.
I was really hoping this would work, too I miss having the weather right on my phone!
