About

Downpour Weather

Features
Read full description

Downpour is a focused weather radar built for answering one question quickly: what is the weather doing around me? LIVE WEATHER RADAR Follow NOAA NEXRAD precipitation across the United States with an animated recent-history timeline, readable roads, and a clear intensity legend. FUTURE RADAR Move beyond now with an HRRR simulated-reflectivity forecast extending up to 18 hours. Downpour clearly separates observed radar from forecast guidance and shows the active model run. LOCAL FORECASTS See current conditions, hourly and daily outlooks, wind, humidity, pressure, dew point, sunrise, and sunset. Conditions follow the map: pan anywhere in the U.S. and the forecast updates for the place under the crosshair. Forecasts use Apple Weather, with the National Weather Service as a U.S. fallback. SEVERE WEATHER View active National Weather Service warning polygons directly over the radar map and tap them for details. BUILT FOR PRIVACY No account, advertising, analytics SDK, or tracking. Optional calendar briefings and notifications are processed on your device. DOWNPOUR PRO An optional auto-renewing subscription adds live radar widgets, radar on Apple Watch, and precipitation Live Activities where minute-by-minute data is available. Yearly and monthly plans; the price and term are shown before you subscribe, and you can cancel anytime in Settings. Downpour also supports widgets, Apple Watch, iPhone, and iPad.
