-Heads-up cards now use the National Weather Service's own words: "Storms likely around 6 PM" means likely, "Chance of storms" means a maybe, and a maybe never buzzes your phone. -Reminders are timed to the hour that earned them, not the storm's edge. -Watches are named as watches, advisories as advisories. -Warnings show first, before the forecast finishes loading. -Turning off a reminder time no longer hides the hazard. -Small fixes can now reach you without a store update.
