With StormLytics Plus, go deeper into the forecast: - What Changed: see meaningful shifts between forecast runs. - Odds That Matter: explore forecast probabilities for useful thresholds and time windows. - Possible Outcomes: compare available forecast ranges, rather than relying on one number alone. - Full Forecast Explorer: investigate more forecast detail for planning. - Additional Storm, Snow, Marine, and Event Weather Watch intelligence. No StormLytics account or sign-in is required. Subscribe to Plus through Apple in the app. Available plans, prices, and purchase terms are shown in the app and on the store confirmation screen. Feature availability and weather coverage vary by product and location. Forecasts can change. Always consult current official warnings and local authorities for safety decisions. Apple processes iOS subscription payments. Monthly and annual subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through Apple. Manage your subscription in your Apple Account settings.
