GoCheckMyWeather
NWS radar, alerts, hurricanes
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Official National Weather Service data, as issued. Alerts for your place, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, radar, the forecast and hurricane tracking.
GoCheckMyWeather shows official National Weather Service data, as issued, with nothing added and nothing hidden. It carries the same data as gocheckmyweather.com, built for the phone: alerts as notifications, widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, and the last reading kept for when you are offline.
ALERTS FOR YOUR PLACE
Choose a place once, by your location, a ZIP code or a city. When the National Weather Service issues a watch, warning or advisory for that place, you get a notification. Alerts arrive as NWS wrote them, and the app tells you plainly when it cannot reach NWS rather than showing a quiet all-clear.
A WIDGET ON YOUR HOME SCREEN
Your place's own sky, drawn from the reading and the hour, with the temperature, today's high and low, and what changes next. An active watch or warning takes a band across the top, with the time it ends. It says when its reading was taken, and offline it shows the last good one with its age rather than a blank. It never shows "no alerts" because a check failed.
EVERYTHING FROM THE SITE
Live radar with a loop. The hourly and seven-day forecast. Active alerts with the full as-issued text. The Hurricane Center with the NHC cone, forecast track, watches and warnings, and where the storm sits relative to land. Coastal, river, boating and surf conditions where NWS publishes them, including tides.
WHAT IT IS NOT
GoCheckMyWeather makes no forecasts of its own and makes no emergency decisions for you. In an emergency, follow your local officials. It presents National Weather Service data; it does not replace it.
PRIVACY
No account. No ads. The place you choose goes to the National Weather Service and the other government feeds to fetch your readings. Only if you turn alerts on, our alert relay keeps that place, as its forecast zone, its county and its name, with the notification address Apple issues to this app, so that place's alerts can reach you. Turning alerts off deletes both. Nothing else leaves your phone. Nothing is sold, and nothing is shared with anyone else.
WIDGETS
Right now: the sky over your place, the temperature and today's high and low. Next six hours: the same reading with every hour, its chance of rain, and what changes next. Today and the week: today's hours and the next five days on one scale. The full picture, on iPad: today, the next ten hours and the whole week. Lock Screen: the reading, today's high and low and any alert, in the circular, rectangular and inline sizes. Any Home Screen widget also shows in StandBy.
GoCheckMyWeather is part of the GoCheckMy family of sites from Go Check My Brands LLC.
Severe and extreme warnings now arrive as Time Sensitive notifications, so a Focus can let them through.
When you turn alerts on, the app waits for our alert relay to answer, then names the forecast zones it follows, or tells you plainly that setup did not finish and that it will try again.
If iOS closes the page while the app is in the background, it comes back on its own.
The tab bar follows the page you are on.
Plainer words about what leaves your phone, and about how your place relates to the places you look at on the Home tab.
