StormTrack13 is a redesigned, reinvigorated all purpose weather app from WMBB-TV. Designed by the First Alert Storm Team Meteorologists in 2020 for the general public, this app aims to provide you the tools to stay alert and aware in all weather situations. Some key features of StormTrack13 are: - Weather Alerts for multiple locations, so you can track weather for your kids in college, your friends, or just to see how bad the weather is anywhere. - Exclusive Lightning Alerts, ideal for coaches so that you are alerted anytime lightning is within 15 miles of your location - Embedded power outage maps, so that when power is out, you know when it’s coming back on. - Beach Flags for the central Florida Panhandle, and outside weather cameras so you can check out the beach before you head out. - Daily video forecasts from the First Alert Storm Team, so if you miss the morning or evening news you still have your weather forecast - Submit a photo you’ve taken to our Meteorologists, or a storm report to the National Weather Service - Report price gouging directly to the Florida Attorney General - Embedded LIVE video player so you can streaming newscasts and severe weather alerts, so when power is out, you’re not disconnected.

• Locations for forecast data/map data and Safety Net alerts are now all handled in a centralized location. • The user’s selected locations are now consistent across forecasts and alerts, and don’t need to be managed independently. • Safety Net alerts are now toggled on for the user’s location upon app install. New locations added also have Safety Net alerts automatically turned on. • Users can now choose whether to receive alerts from each separate location. • When a user clicks an alert notification, they are now taken to the map page showing the last viewed data product for that alert location. • A new 7-day forecast includes a written forecast for both day and night time.
