Stormora: Weather Alerts Map helps you track severe weather warnings, storm alerts, flood warnings, wind alerts, snow and ice warnings, thunderstorm alerts, lightning risk, hurricane alerts, tornado warnings, wildfire conditions, extreme heat and other dangerous weather where supported public warning feeds are available. Weather can change quickly. Stormora gives you a map-first way to see active weather alerts near your current location, around saved places, or around any city you search. Instead of only checking a general forecast, you can see where official warning areas are active, how severe they are, when they expire, and which source issued them. WEATHER ALERTS ON A LIVE MAP • View active weather warning areas on a clear map • Scan nearby alerts and global alert clusters • Check severity, distance, source, start time and expiry • Open full alert details from the warning source • See whether an alert has an official area, point, broad region, or limited location detail STORM, RAIN, FLOOD, WIND AND SNOW WARNINGS Use Stormora to follow severe thunderstorms, heavy rain, flash flood risk, coastal flooding, strong wind, winter storms, snow, ice, extreme heat, wildfire conditions and other local weather hazards. Coverage varies by region, but the app is built around official public warning data where available. APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS AND PUSH ALERTS Stormora supports Apple Watch, widgets, app badge alerts and push notifications so you can keep an eye on severe weather without reopening the map every time. Apple Watch and widgets show nearby weather alert status and help you notice important active warnings faster. MONITOR PLACES THAT MATTER Weather risk is not always only where you are standing. Save home, work, family locations, travel cities or outdoor plans, then adjust the alert radius around each area. You can also search a city manually and use Stormora without granting location access. CONTROL ALERT NOISE • Filter by severity and alert type • Suppress duplicate official warnings • Focus on severe and extreme alerts when you need fewer interruptions • Choose the alert radius around each place • Keep watching conditions even when the map is closed WHAT PREMIUM ADDS Stormora Premium unlocks monitoring for up to 10 saved places, smarter alert rules for severity and event types, duplicate-alert cleanup, Apple Watch and widget-focused monitoring, and an ad-free experience. Stormora is built for one practical question: is dangerous weather active near me or my saved places, how serious is it, where is it, and when does it expire? Coverage depends on country, region and available official public weather warning feeds. Stormora is a weather safety aid. It does not replace local authorities, emergency services, sirens, evacuation orders, emergency broadcasts or official safety instructions. Subscription information: • Stormora Premium Weekly: auto-renewable subscription, 1 week, $0.99 per week. • Stormora Premium Annual: auto-renewable subscription, 1 year, $19.99 per year. • Prices may vary by country. The App Store shows the final local price before purchase. • Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
