RexWeather

Apple Watch App RexWeather is now on your wrist. The companion watchOS app shows current conditions, tornado potential score, and SPC outlook — fetching data independently without needing your iPhone. A Tornado Potential complication is available for all major watch face families. Home Screen & Lock Screen Widgets Two new widgets bring real-time data to your home screen: Tornado Potential (score, band label, fill bar) and SPC Day 1 Outlook (categorical risk for your location). Both update automatically — no need to open the app. Tornado Legacy — Redesigned Tornado Legacy now opens full-screen directly from the home screen. Browse activity by decade with proportional bars colored by EF rating, then tap any decade to jump into Explorer pre-filtered to that time range. Tornado Explorer — Smarter Date Picker Date pickers now cap at the latest available NOAA data and display "Historical data available through [Month Year]" so you always know the coverage window. Selecting an invalid date range now auto-corrects instead of returning empty results. 2025 Tornado Database The SPC historical dataset has been updated to include 2025. Existing users are migrated automatically. Performance The full tornado dataset is now cached in memory after the first load, and filtering runs on a background thread. Map panning in Explorer is dramatically smoother. Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where tornadoes from large outbreaks were incorrectly merged into a single event at nationwide zoom. Fixed long-track tornadoes that passed through your search area but started outside it being excluded from results.
