What's New
All-New Radar The radar has been rebuilt from the ground up with a custom tile engine — smoother animations, faster tile loading, and an opacity slider to control overlay transparency. The radar legend now remembers whether you had it collapsed between sessions. Redesigned Radio Controls The radio player now uses a cleaner single-row control bar with a larger play button and springy animation on the skip buttons. The layout has been improved on both iPhone and iPad. Active Alert Badge A red badge now appears on the Alerts tab whenever there are active weather alerts for your location. Pull to Refresh Swipe down to refresh throughout the app — the old navigation bar refresh buttons are gone. Smarter Background Refresh Weather and radar now refresh automatically when you return to the app after 15+ minutes, without unnecessary reloads on every tab switch. UI Refresh Consistent card-style cells, large navigation titles, and polish across the entire app. Bug Fixes Audio now restores correctly after phone call interruptions. Fixed radar tile flickering during scrubbing, a frozen table after deleting the last row, and an issue where push notification device tokens weren't being saved correctly.

New user. Plan to use this app while we travel in our Motorhome to various places around the country to always be in the know of severe weather where we are
Use extensively on our campus. We host many scholastic and sports events. This app is invaluable!
I like this app because I can plan a route when traveling. Select stations along route and be advised of hazardous weather in the area.
This is for sure a must have app with all the crazy weather we have been having. Plus you can keep up with the conditions for family and friends in other areas…
Truly appreciate this app. Living in the Texas Panhandle, weather is notoriously fickle, unpredictable, and at times destructive. Having this weather radio is nothing but a benefit.
NOAA Weather Radio is always here reporting the good and the bad! It gives reports when the weather is dangerous and alerts us. I also use it to plan my trips to any other place I am going. Thanks to the developers and team!
My family needed a weather radio
Like to check the site each morning. Helps me plan my day.
This app is a good place to have most everything you need in a storm situation. It sends push notifications to your phone when alerts are issued and then you can click on your local weather feed, and if yours isn’t listed you can import your own feed if you find a website online, but this way might not support radar depending on the location the website provides. The radar is base reflectivity and has storm tracks that let you know the predicted route the storm will take. Overall tells you all you need to know to stay safe and informed in severe weather.
Living in tornado alley this app truly is a life saver.
