What's New in NOAA Weather Radio

15.3

August 6, 2026

Synthesized NOAA Stations Can't get a live broadcast signal? WeatherRadio now generates on-demand NOAA-style audio from live National Weather Service data. Zone forecasts, hazardous weather outlooks, coastal waters, river and flood statements, short-term forecasts, and more — with real-time alert interrupts during playback. Radar & Overlay Improvements The radar map now includes an animated infrared satellite layer alongside live radar. Active advisories are rendered as color-coded overlays directly on the map and filter automatically as you scrub the timeline. Tropical cyclone and tropical storm statements are now included in the advisory overlay. Custom Station Improvements Custom stations now support a frequency field and an optional radar station code, so your custom feeds can show radar just like built-in stations. Callsign and frequency are displayed throughout the app wherever the station appears. Station Names All broadcast station names have been updated to match official NOAA transmitter designations. Bug Fixes & Polish Various stability and performance improvements.

NOAA Weather Radio

Every time I try to open the radio it says station is offline so I don’t get any radio report! And when I try different locations it still shows south Florida on the radar not the station that I clicked on

Cancel account????

I’ve tried to cancel my account several times and you continue to try and charge my card this needs fixed in the app so you can cancel a subscription in the app!!! Your email service is a joke!

Bug

Should I have had this app since 2025 and I have been noticing that I can no longer get notifications even though they are on

Great app

This is my favorite weather app! You get the NOAA radio forecast as well as a way to read radar.
