### 3/5 — Storm tracks not updated for over 18 hours

*2020-08-02*

A tropical storm is 2 days away from me in the US. It’s 2:25 Sunday afternoon and the storm tracks haven’t been updated since Saturday 8 pm. Not unusual for this app, which I generally like and I have a high opinion of ECMWF models. But when your life & property depend on accurate info, having timely info is necessary. Makes me wonder if the other maps in the app are showing up-to-date info or are as delayed and useless.

### 5/5 — Whoa

*2018-09-13*

This is amazing! Clean layout and tons of information. Great graphical presentation and models! Inexpensive subscription. Well done!
