Weather Channel Australia has launched a local weather app for the BlackBerry.
The handset's GPS is used to provide local information, or the user can enter a postcode to obtain a forecast for other areas. Reports are also available for more than 300 locations around the world.

The $A3.35 app is available from BlackBerry App World.
