Ratings and reviews

A very good and reliable app during severe weather outbreaks. It is well built and provides warning notifications faster than the big weather apps. I find the siren notification sound option to be very effective in getting my attention (makes my heart skip a beat when it sounds off, ha!). My only suggestion would be to make the siren sound available only for Tornado Warnings and the ability to assign another sound to all other notifications.

App gives fairly accurate weather in real time and adjusts forecast as weather patterns change. I can keep checking forecast several times during a weather change to better plan around it. It makes planning anything you have to do during times when weather fluctuations are always changing to better use your time. I rely on it every day, especially now that winter is approaching.

For Mississippi residents, this is the best weather app that I've found for Android! The only change that I would love to see is the ability to open and read the details of advisories and warnings of other locations than only the one that is selected currently. The only way to see those details is to change the selected location. Otherwise, it would be perfect
