Get the most accurate Jacksonville-area forecast in town with the First Alert Weather App from Action News Jax - WJAX/WFOX. The app features the forecast from your neighborhood, live radar, breaking weather alerts, live streaming video from Chief Meteorologist Mike Buresh and the First Alert weather team.
Summary of Features:
- There is a new radar in the weather app that matches the radar found on other digital platforms and also includes future radar to provide you with a likely path and outlook of storms. The radar has 250 meter resolution, the highest available.
- New tracks - We added earthquakes and storm tracks as layers in the radar. Now you can track the location and magnitude of earthquakes as well for storms the speed, direction and type. Tap the “storm symbols” icon in the radar to see the list.
- Push alerts are FREE for more than 25 alert types including everything from tornado warnings to winter storm warnings and tropical storm alert types.

- Place a location pin precisely where you want it for a specific address or any position on a map. When saving a location you can name it exactly how you want it.
- The app works with identical features on tablet and handset.
- Additional items added seasonally
The weather app also has these critical benefits and features:
- The radar zooms down to your neighborhood or zooms out to check radar anywhere in the country.
- The app provides Location-Based alerts. While many other apps offer alerts based on your county, This app supports a more precise type of alert issued for the most dangerous types of weather threats. More precision means you get alerts that matter to you, not false alarms.

Ratings and Reviews
Weather
I absolutely love this app! I do wish Palm Coast could call this their home WeatherStation .Well I only see us included occasionally why is this? Do you recommend another station for our listening area ,as I thought we were North Florida too. I hear people ask about it a lot wondering what is our station. Please advise, thank you very much ,I love your station.
Weather Notifications
I just love this because I get notifications to my phone so I’m always aware of what is happening weather wise.
Solid App with Questionable Decision Making
The app is pretty solid. Plenty of push notifications for severe weather in my area, and many that aren’t in my area. I would seriously consider changing your ads. If I get a push notification for a “severe weather update,” I shouldn’t have to sit through an ad to see what’s going on.
