Leave a Review NOAA Weather Radar
Poorly done!
It needs more work. Specially when it comes to the radar image. The quality of the image is extremely poor compared to other apps such as Intellicast, NOAA Hi-Def Radar Pro and many others. Which show a detail google map with good quality image. Some even show you with a dot where you are on the map and you can zoom in. And you can select to view it as a still image or loop video that you can pause at any time. Others apps also show you past and future radar images/video. And their satellite image is not a little window at the top right hand corner of the screen. They really need to go back to the drawing board with this one.Show lessFototico
NOAA Weather Radar
My instant source for weather info. Lets me know what's happening around me. Great short-term planning tool. Handy to have available when needed.
Handy to have if you are planning to have outdoor events; or, if you work outside.
As a photographer, I can be prepared if my work takes me into an area of adverse weather. Really handy to have! Lets you have the upper hand when locals tell you the weather won't change; you can show them that they just might be wrong! With the variable weather conditions for this area, it's good to know if a sudden change might be coming! Very worthwhile! Our forecasts come from Duluth; and are often way off. We have a divide that they don't account for; and that changes the forecast a bunch. This app helps you plan right.Show lessEngineersyd
Outstanding storm companion
I live in Tulsa, OK (Tornado Alley) where early warning of nasty weather is essential. The customizable alert feature is very handy when storms blow up out to the west. You can preset which counties get alerts, so you really know when to pay attention to the warnings. The advance warning coupled with my in-ground storm shelter provides a lot of peace of mind during storm season.
The other great feature is the looping radar images. I usually use this app on my iPad, so if I want to see radar in motion this is where I go to do that. The NOAA website radar won't loop because it uses flash, which is not supported by Apple products.
I wholeheartedly recommend this app for anyone concerned about severe weather.Show lessmyre75
Excellent Weather App
This app provides me with what I need to monitor storm activity. I live in Minnesota & we have very changeable weather. I frequently travel for work several days a week for work. Being able to follow on radar where the storm is heading and to have a regional view is great. On the other apps out there this is not available - the other apps really limit the radar to more of a local view. Love the weather alerts and the audible alert too. This app is awesome!! Thank you!Show lessSurfingkatz
Had it over 1 yr - a must have amazing app
I have had this app for over a year (worth the small cost). I'm petrified of bad weather and this app has kept me informed of bad weather and urgent weather notices at my work, home and my kids school (you can add any state and county which is wonderful since I work 35 miles from my home and my kids stay home in summer/breaks). I haven't had any technical issues or weird things like other apps. This is a must have app!Show lessMinnesota Resident
FINALLY.
Finally a successor to the Weather Alert USA app from Softpeas. This app is an, albeit thinly veiled, wrapper the NOAA website. It is much easier to navigate than the website itself, and you can find everything you'd want quickly.
The only cons are that it is so thinly veiled, often taking you straight to the website from within the app, and that it can be a little clunky sometimes. Having a forecast office set as a favorite, instead of having to scroll the list for your city, would be a great improvement.Show lessDoulosKyriou
Love it!
I live in an area that gets a lot of severe weather and this app is fantastic. I have it set up for warnings in my area and it alerts me very loudly when severe weather is approaching. The radar is always updated as well, which is very handy when on the go.
My only suggestion is when you click on weather statements or watches/warnings that it shows the entire text instead of just the first few lines.
Love that you can add more than one county for warnings, it helps when you are traveling.Show lessReghead121
Good for overall weather data.
Good app for a quick overview. I am a weather app junkie and have too many on my iPad! This one is good for the alerts. My favorite app is Weather Bug. This one augments the info I get from Weather Bug.
I like it because it is the latest up to date regional weather and I can see in a glance what is happening in regions I follow. ( places where I have family members. )
It does have a link to underground weather website. Lots of crazy right wing junk there like help the world is going to end ads on the website. I wish that wasn't linked to the app.Show lessGreenNeitzen
Great App, Great Service
I live in "Tornado Alley" in the state of Kansas. I wanted this app for my safety and my family's safety. I found it was missing the county where my mother lives so I wrote the developer. They responded within minutes. They added my mother's county and answered my question about adding favorites. Sure you can find this information on a computer but I don't always have acces to my laptop but everywhere I travel, I have my iPad within reach. As I say in my title, this is a great app from a developer who gives great service. Thank you, crusheD boX softwarE.Show lessEEN123
Comprehensive look at the weather.
This app has just about any kind of weather information for any region of the US that I can think of. Not only today's weather but the forecast. Also, the radar is in motion when you click on it for the last period of time, rather than having to make an extra step to turn on that feature, a real time-saver when the weather is stormy. The still radar picture is what it actually looks like in your region before, not an icon representation. It's a great look at what's going on!Show lessFrogsey
