One of the best

Just wanted to say I have been using the app for years and the information and maps are more accurate then most weather services.

Great Data - User Interface needs Work

Great app to track any meteorological events in the hurricane belt.
However, the user interface feels completely outdate and would need some serious in terms of ease of use & conviviality.
Most of the live images take ages to load on 5H and so one and it always requires some mental exercise to understand how the app work.
That being said, it’s not necessarily easy to combine all this data in one pack.
