Store description excerpt
Most weather apps show you a model's guess. This one shows you what the National Weather Service actually issued — including the forecast discussion your local meteorologist wrote by hand, twice a day. No ads. No account. No tracking. Free. WHAT YOU GET HERE AND ALMOST NOWHERE ELSE • 3-hour radar loops — where most apps give you the last 30 minutes • The Area Forecast Discussion in full: your NWS office's own reasoning, unedited • Climate records for your city, in many places back to the 1800s, and how today compares • A 14-day outlook — a full week past where the NWS forecast ends • SPC convective outlooks, with mesoscale discussions as they're issued • 12 raw NWS text products — storm reports, fire weather, winter statements, flood outlooks, daily climate reports, record reports • Four radar products and six satellite products, not one of each • Every reading credited to the station that measured it, with distance CLIMATE & RECORDS • Is this hot for September? See today's high and low against the 1991–2020 normal, and the all-time record with the year it was set • Are we behind on rain? Month-to-date and year-to-date rainfall with the departure from normal • How much snow so far? Season totals against normal, all winter • How long since it rained? Dry streaks counted from daily records • Sourced from the NWS Climatological Report and the Regional Climate Centers — the same figures your local office publishes RADAR • Live NOAA RIDGE2 NEXRAD — the same feed meteorologists use • Base Reflectivity, Storm Layer, Storm Tops, and Precipitation Type • 1, 2 or 3-hour loops with ½× to 4× playback and a drag-to-scrub timeline • Watch a line of storms actually organize, instead of guessing from one frame • Adjustable overlay opacity SATELLITE • Animated GOES-East imagery via NASA GIBS/Earthdata • GeoColor, Infrared, Visible, Air Mass, Dust, and Fire Temperature • Track smoke, dust and fire hot spots, not just clouds NWS ALERTS • Push notifications when NWS issues a watch, warning or advisory for you • Set your own severity threshold and quiet hours — no waking up for a dense fog advisory • Alerts follow where you actually are, not a city you looked up • Interactive alert map, filterable by warning, watch and advisory • No account required, no tracking STORM CENTER • SPC convective outlooks — Marginal through High risk • SPC mesoscale discussions • Area Forecast Discussion, Hazardous Weather Outlook, Local Storm Reports, Special Weather Statements, Zone Forecasts, Fire Weather, Winter Weather, Flood Outlooks, Climate Reports and Record Reports — the raw text, straight from your office FORECAST & CONDITIONS • 7-day NWS forecast with highs, lows and conditions • 14-day outlook for the days beyond it, clearly marked as model guidance rather than an NWS forecast — we tell you which is which • Hourly timeline • Temperature, feels-like, wind, humidity, dew point, pressure, visibility and UV index • Air quality from EPA AirNow MARINE & TIDES • NOAA CO-OPS
