Your parents live far away. Kinwarn warns you when a tornado, severe thunderstorm or flash flood warning covers their home or yours. Kinwarn Pro calls them, and if they don't pick up, it calls you. They don't need an app.
THE EXACT ADDRESS, NOT THE WHOLE COUNTY
Kinwarn checks each saved address against the National Weather Service warning's storm polygon. If a tornado warning stops a mile short of your parents' house, their place shows No warnings. If it covers their house, you know right away, with the minutes until the storm arrives.
WHAT YOUR PHONE’S EMERGENCY ALERTS MISS
Wireless Emergency Alerts reach phones inside the warned area, so your phone stays quiet when a tornado warning covers your parents’ house two states away. And many warnings never set one off: from 2022 to 2025, over 2 in 3 flash flood warnings and about 98 in 100 severe thunderstorm warnings came without one. Kinwarn alerts you to these warnings for every home you add.
