What's New in MD Weather Alerts

3.1

November 1, 2026

A new look, a new Explore tab, and November's event, the Maryland Flyway. THE MARYLAND FLYWAY (all November) • Pick up feathers on the map and radar, and watch flocks of geese cross Maryland. The app tells you when one passes near you and shows you where to meet it. • Fill your Field Guide: 20 Maryland birds in four sets. Find them with golden feathers or open feather packs. Finish a set for a painted badge, find all 20 to become a Master Birder and earn the Snowy Owl theme. • The Flyway Stand: new themes (Marsh Dawn, Tundra Swan, Blue Hour Bay), badge frames, Flyway Finds and a Flyway app icon. • Work together with all of Maryland toward daily goals and prizes, and race your county to the top. • Special nights: Eagle Day, the Leonid meteor shower on the night radar (Nov 17), the Beaver Moon and a Black Friday sale. EXPLORE • The Skywatch tab is now Explore: Skywatch plus each month's event, with a card for what's happening today. A WHOLE NEW LOOK • Sky Glass: a live Maryland sky behind every screen that follows the sun, moon, clouds and stars where you are, with Liquid Glass cards and buttons on top. • A new Home: today's weather in one sentence, a 3D Maryland map with a radar time scrub, minute-by-minute rain, and cards you can move, hide and bring back. • A new app icon: a painted Maryland under sun, cloud and rain. MORE • Faster reports: report from any screen, add a photo or a note, see who nearby confirmed it, and undo within 5 seconds. • Skywatch rebuilt: a 3D map that follows you, painted weather stations and a Field Kit backpack. • Community: direct messages, editing and deleting your own posts, "I see it too", and a tabbed leaderboard. • Your profile: a trophy case with 100+ badges and your Field Guide on your public collection. • The Shop: a new sign, a Wishlist, every new arrival, and tap any item to spin it around up close. • Themes: one Look screen with every theme and a live preview. • Settings: a simpler layout, grouped alerts, new sounds and search. • New here? A one-minute tour, and Help & Tips with a "Show me" for every feature. • Widgets and Live Activities show the live sky too. Plus: tornado and flash flood warnings for where you are, smoother scrolling on Home, and lots of fixes.

User reviews

Hyper Local is good

Sometime in the last 20 years weather went from being something you got from local experts to a generic forecast from faceless apps. This app has all the bells and whistles of the big apps and then more, plus the point of view of the area you actually live. I highly recommend.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words!

Local accurate weather

I have been using the basic weather app that comes with iPhone for over a decade. It has never failed to disappoint me. It will be raining for 15 minutes and I look at the app and it doesn’t even suggest a chance of precipitation, let alone update when it is CURRENTLY RAINING. This app is more accurate locally and even has incentive for you to have your own input and report on current weather conditions as they unfold. Give this app a chance and you will never go back to the horrible weather apps of the past. Also very customizable with notifications and in-app settings and preferences. Very well thought out.

Weather made fun

I have been enjoying this app. The weather has been accurate. I have been enjoying collecting weatherlings. The added social component is perfect for weather nerds.

Great app

This is really comprehensive- all the weather you expect plus customizable map views of radar and weather reports, ability to report weather, and fun stuff like points and cute weather critters. Love that it’s MD only and MD themed.
