Severe weather without the noise. See your local storm risk, threats, alerts, and evolving conditions in one calm, focused view. How weather-aware do you need to be today? SkyAware gives you a focused, fast view of severe weather near you, helping you understand when the weather deserves your attention and when it doesn’t. Clear awareness, without the noise Most weather apps show you everything. SkyAware focuses on what matters for severe weather, using trusted public weather data to turn complex information into a calm, glanceable view of your local risk. SkyAware shows you: • Today’s local storm and fire risk • Warnings, watches, and mesoscale discussions affecting or near your location • The severe-weather threats that matter most • Atmospheric conditions that can support severe storms • Interactive risk maps and official outlook information • Location-aware notifications when important conditions change Dig deeper when you want more context, or get the important picture in just a few seconds. Built for awareness SkyAware is designed to help you understand your severe-weather environment, not overwhelm you with raw weather data. Risk levels, summaries, and other guidance are derived from authoritative public weather products and SkyAware’s own processing. Your location is used only to provide relevant weather information and notifications. SkyAware does not sell your data, track you across apps or websites, or build advertising profiles. Important SkyAware is an informational severe-weather awareness app. It does not issue official warnings, and notifications may not always be immediate. Always rely on official alerts from the National Weather Service, NOAA Weather Radio, and local authorities for emergency information.

SkyAware 1.1 brings deeper severe-weather awareness, faster updates, and a more reliable experience. • New Storm Setup adds deeper context when severe storms are a concern, with a focused summary and optional detailed atmospheric ingredients. • New risk-change notifications can alert you when your local severe-weather risk changes, with smarter handling to reduce duplicate or misleading notifications. • Today is faster and steadier, showing the important picture sooner while keeping useful conditions, alerts, and air-quality information in place during refreshes. • Maps are more accurate and resilient, with improved risk-area geometry and better preservation of active warning information during temporary refresh issues. • Background updates and notifications are more reliable, with improved scheduling, recovery, location handling, and retry behavior. • Fire-weather wording, startup presentation, accessibility, and many details throughout the app have also been refined.
