SkyForge vs Thunder Buddy Weather

SkyForge makes the weather radar the whole app — a full-screen, buttery-smooth animated map is your home screen, and everything else floats cleanly on top. RADAR THAT MOVES • Smooth, motion-interpolated radar: the past two hours, then up to an hour of forecast radar where it's available • 3D storms — heavy rain rises off the map as shaded clouds that cast shadows • Live wind streams — thousands of moving particles showing direction and speed • Temperature overlay with a color-graded legend • Show precipitation, temperature and wind together • Fronts & pressure from NOAA's surface analysis • Zoom out far enough and the map becomes a spinning 3D globe, colored with NASA satellite land cover A FORECAST WITH DEPTH • 10-day forecast — tap any day to expand a plain-English brief • Interactive charts for every day: temperature, precipitation, UV, wind, humidity, visibility, and pressure — drag to pinpoint any minute • Hourly forecast, current conditions, "feels like", and high/low • Air quality (US AQI), UV index, sunrise & sunset, dew point, and more BUILT FOR WHERE YOU ARE • Automatic radar and forecast for your current location • Save cities and reorder your list with a long-press • Dark and light map themes that remember your choice SEVERE WEATHER • Live watches, warnings, and advisories from the US National Weather Service, right at the top of your screen when they matter HONEST BY DESIGN • 100% free and ad-free • No account, no sign-up, no tracking • Your location is used only to fetch weather — never stored or sold Weather data from Open-Meteo, LibreWXR, RainViewer, NOAA / National Weather Service, NASA GIBS, Iowa State Mesonet, and OpenWeatherMap.

Where’s your Thunder Buddy? When the forecast turns serious, you think about people: Mom at home, a friend across town, family along the coast. Thunder Buddy brings their weather and yours together, so you can follow changing conditions and check in with the people you care about. WEATHER FOR YOUR PEOPLE See conditions around your Buddies’ shared locations alongside your own forecast. Organize family and friends into Circles, and keep favorite places close—from home and work to a loved one’s neighborhood. PUT YOUR PEOPLE ON THE RADAR Explore animated radar with saved places, Buddies, and weather-warning areas on the same map. Focus on a Circle or a location, open an alert for details, and follow hurricane information when storms are active. CHECK IN WHEN WEATHER CHANGES Receive National Weather Service alert notifications for monitored places and Buddy locations. Send a personal check-in and see their reply. Everyday forecasts help you stay connected between storms, too. SHARING IS YOUR CHOICE Choose what to share and who can see it. Share a saved place or your device location with selected Buddies, and manage those choices in one place. App location access and Buddy sharing are separate: allowing the app to use your location does not automatically share it with anyone. Use saved places with device location off, allow location while using the app, or separately enable optional background updates. iOS controls update timing; shared locations and companion displays may show the last available update. A shared saved place does not confirm that someone is physically there. YOUR WEATHER, ACROSS APPLE DEVICES • iPhone and iPad: a redesigned Home, Buddy weather, Circles, radar, alerts, and hourly and daily forecasts. • Widgets: place weather, Buddy weather, check-ins, and radar at a glance. • Apple Watch: favorite places and Buddies, weather, and supported check-ins on your wrist. • Apple TV: a household weather dashboard with radar, Buddy and place forecasts, a ten-day outlook, and sign-in using your phone. START WITH YOUR INNER CIRCLE New Thunder Buddy Free accounts include two saved places and weather monitoring for two Buddies, plus your current-location weather. Existing accounts keep their previous allowance. An optional Thunder Buddy Premium subscription unlocks unlimited places and Buddies. Subscription options and pricing are shown in the app. Built for U.S. weather coverage. Weather alerts depend on available source data, connectivity, notification permissions, and the freshness of the monitored location. Thunder Buddy is not an emergency service or a substitute for official warnings and evacuation instructions. Never rely on a single source for emergency alerts.
