## What is squalls?

squalls is the Bermuda weather app built on the data Bermudians actually trust.

Live radar from the Bermuda Weather Service (BWS). Local forecasts that pick up showers and squalls global apps miss. Marine forecasts with wave heights and warnings. Local tides. Native iOS widgets. No ads, no accounts, no tracking.

— LIVE RADAR —
The BWS radar — from close-in over the island out to 500 km to show approaching weather.

— LOCAL FORECASTS —
Built on the BWS forecast, not a global model's best guess. Catches the small-scale showers and squalls global apps routinely miss.

— MARINE FORECASTS —
Wave heights inside and outside the reef. Live small craft, gale, storm, and hurricane warnings — with start and end times. High and low tide times for St. George's Harbour.

— PUSH NOTIFICATIONS —
Optional alerts when a new marine warning is issued.

— SUN & MOON —
Sunrise, sunset, day length. Moonrise, moonset, phase, illumination.

— LOCK SCREEN + HOME SCREEN WIDGETS —
Radar, satellite, current conditions and forecast.

— PRIVACY —
No accounts. No ads. No tracking across sites. squalls.app/privacy.html

— BUILT FOR BERMUDA —
