NOAA SuperRes Radar US
Screenshots
Description
An app designed by and for weather enthusiasts, NOAA SuperRes Radar is the only app in that offers access to stunningly beautiful super hi-resolution radar mosaics for the continental US. SuperRes radar has 4 times the resolution of typical weather radar products (250 meters vs 1000 meters), so you will be able to view storm features that can't be viewed in ordinary radar apps. No other app delivers radar mosaics with this kind of accuracy in such an easy to use package. In addition to SuperRes Level 2 radar, NOAA RadarUS+ offers access to 3 km hourly forecast radar and the following features: - 3 and 6 day precipitation and pressure forecasts from NOAA weather models - Temperature overlay - Snow/mixed precipitation display (only on 1km base reflectivity radar layer) - 7 day forecasts and current conditions -- just press and hold for a second on the radar map. - Severe weather (flash flood, tornado, and severe thunderstorm) warnings. Tap on a warning box to display the full warning message from the National Weather Service. Note: these are *not* push alerts. The app must be open to view the warnings. - Cloud cover and satellite imagery for the continental United States - Advanced radar layers (echo tops, composite reflectivity, and storm total precipitation). - Play, pause, and step animations - Fast zoom in and zoom out - Choice of radar palettes - Multiple map styles (terrain, map, satellite, and hybrid) - Displays time of radar image either as absolute time or relative to the current time - GPS locator that finds and displays your current location - Adjust the transparency (opacity) of the radar or cloud cover overlays - Radar clutter filtering and smoothing - Automatic refresh when new radar or cloud cover data is available - Search for a location by zip code, city name, or address - Legend for radar and cloud cover overlays - Saves and restores your last location and zoom level Note: Radar coverage only includes the continental United States. Alaska, Hawaii, and other US controlled territories are not included. Support: Please follow our Twitter stream at twitter.com/shuksansoft for breaking news and status updates.

My only complaint is that at certain geographic resolutions, radar gets truncated. It presents a flat side.
even after 6 years this is still one of the best apps for precise storm radar data
I shouldn’t have listened to the boomer who told me to buy this app. It can hardly show you what the current weather is or what the forecast will actually look like, because it’s glitchy and isn’t getting consistent data. Interface is bland and the settings/different views aren’t really intuitive. Maybe this app was good a decade+ ago but there are way better options now. Don’t spend money on this one.
It’s impossible to take this app seriously when it can’t even spell “Gulf of Mexico” correctly. Disappointing.
And it is just that. Radar only. I paid for this but hard to believe it doesn’t have a lightning tracker as well. As free apps provide this.
The map used is the inaccurate Mercator Projection map which is a distorted and inaccurate view of the land masses. It is meant to enlarge the land masses in the Northern hemisphere. Alaska is smaller than Mexico, and Greenland is substantially smaller than the size shown. Africa is small on the map, but is much larger. The Petersen’s Projection map is a better map to use.
It’s very good app and it’s worth the money this is my go to app for everything but one think I don’t like about it is how I can’t see the velocity and see where a tornado is so if you can add this feature it would be amazing
This used to be my favorite weather app - I use composite reflectivity with storm tracks… now my app shows that it’s been 24 days since the radar had been updated in my area under those settings so it’s useless to me! Furthermore, upon further investigation it looks like it’s been 5 years since the app was updated? What’s going on? Please fix and i’ll give it 5 stars!
My data is now 10 days old and the app doesn’t appear to be working anymore. Love the app, but everything I’ve tried hasn’t fixed the issue. I think it’s time to find an app that actually works. Disappointed at the inability to contact the company.
Pulled up this app and the data was at least 5 days old. Used to be a fan but no longer. Refreshed. Nothing. Updated. Nothing.
