Ratings and reviews

This app is great! It has just about anything a storm responder needs. I like the option for weather warnings, the fast speed and the options the pro version offers for adding more warning locations and seeing photos. The pins are different colors for each type event, too. The links on the pins to local weather and TV stations is a great and easy way to find out what's going on in the area immediately. I also like that you can search backwards for weather events that occurred in the past.

This app is so cool! I hadn't downloaded it yet because I don't personally need to know storm locations. However I'm so glad I did!! There's a hidden gem! When you click on the storm report and scroll down you get a list of local news channels for the area and ways to listen live to different dispatches for police and fire so you can stay informed! New favorite for travel!

This app is wonderful! The interface is easy to navigate, and the app is simple to understand at a glance! I especially like the storm report locations and pictures. This is just another great resource created by Red Sky Ready! Definitely a solid choice for anyone who needs reliable information!
