Weathervane: Live Radar Map
NOAA Storm Warnings. Pay Once
$5.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Animated NOAA radar in under a second. "Rain starting in ~15 min." Severe-weather alerts for the places you love. $5.99 once - no subscription, no ads, no account. Ever.
Weather apps got greedy. Subscriptions for radar. Ads on the forecast. Accounts to see if it will rain. Weathervane is the opposite: everything, for $5.99, once.
RADAR THAT RESPECTS YOU
Smooth, animated NOAA radar — the past two hours plus a 30-minute nowcast. Scrub it by hand or let it play. No trial wall between you and the storm, and if data ever goes stale, the app tells you instead of pretending.
THE SENTENCE YOU ACTUALLY NEED
"Light rain starting in ~15 min." Minute-scale rain forecasts for exactly where you stand — when it starts, when it stops. And honestly worded: every sentence is cross-checked against two independent forecast systems, and when they disagree, Weathervane says "possible" and shows you the probability instead of inventing false precision.
WARNINGS, INSTANTLY
Tornado, severe thunderstorm and flood warnings drawn live on the map the moment the National Weather Service issues them, with watches and advisories shaded beneath. Save home, the cabin, the kids' school — flip the bell and your phone checks in the background and notifies you when a warning covers a place you care about.
MORE LAYERS THAN APPS TEN TIMES THE PRICE
Forecast rain totals out to 72 hours. Snowfall, past and forecast. Temperature, wind and drought. Live river flow. Ocean wave heights. Active wildfires and smoke plumes. Tap anywhere and one popup reads out every active layer at that exact point, with an interactive forecast chart.
A REASON TO OPEN IT ON CLEAR DAYS
Sky Tonight scores the stargazing where you stand — light pollution, moon phase, and each night's cloud forecast — and watches NOAA's space-weather feed so you get an aurora alert when a geomagnetic storm can actually reach your latitude.
ON YOUR HOME SCREEN AND LOCK SCREEN
Widgets with current conditions and the rain sentence, and a Live Activity countdown when rain is minutes away.
WHAT WEATHERVANE DOESN'T HAVE — ON PURPOSE
- No subscription. Ever. $5.99 buys every feature and every future update.
- No ads. Not even in a "free tier." There isn't one.
- No account. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to leak.
- No trackers. Your location goes to the National Weather Service, not to advertisers. We run no server and hold no data about you.
Weathervane is built by the small team behind Snoflo, on the same federal data pipelines that power our forecasting site and eight outdoor apps. Severe-weather coverage is for the United States; radar and forecasts work worldwide.
Weathervane is not an official warning service — always heed Wireless Emergency Alerts and local authorities.
