Storm Radar is chock-full of data and alerts with a focus on hyperlocal weather events. For example, there are numerous weather alerts, like if lightning strikes and thunderstorms occur nearby.
The new version of Storm Radar also offers an AI weather presenter – this one turns raw weather data into a detailed presentation.
Of course, you can communicate with the chatbot and ask your weather-related questions. If you just like to listen and not talk, you can enjoy the audio forecast like it’s narrated by a news presenter.
There are many personalization options to play around with.
You’ll get advised
For example, if you ask Storm Radar whether it’s a good day to run today, you could get a suggestion that the best time to run is… tomorrow.
Other features include an enhanced storm alert from NOAA and the National Weather Service, a high-res single-site radar (with over 12 parameters on storm intensity) and more.
The app offers high-definition mosaic radar and an intuitive interface that lets users choose between a classic or enhanced Pro experience. It also features a highly customizable layout with calendar integration and reorderable widgets. Every tool leverages AI technology to deliver hyper-local, real-time data from the world’s most accurate weather forecaster.
