What you get

Simple on the surface. Deep when you need it.

See the rain

Open it and the radar is already there

It finds your nearest radar and starts the loop. No account, no setup questions, no ads. Watch the rain move, tap anywhere for the forecast at that spot.

Follow the storm

Warnings, lightning and storm tracks on the map

Live watches and warnings, storm reports, lightning, and cells ranked by how nasty they look — with alerts on your phone when one is headed your way.

Chase it

Every tilt, every product, straight from the source

Level 2 volumes at all tilts, velocity and dual-pol, the national MRMS mosaic, HRRR and NAM fields, soundings, cross-sections, archive playback to 1991, and offline chase packs.
