National Weather 4+

This app is worth it’s weight in gold. Just for comparison purposes, I have used this with 3 other free weather apps and compared the accuracy, etc. over the last several months.

One app shows me every storm in a very large region with urgent warnings causing unnecessary concern on a regular basis. The other two apps, lean toward heavy drama on a regular basis, and are frequently wrong, regarding snow, rain, and extreme weather.

I have had no time to set up apps so it’s likely my problem that finding certain things like a forecast for the day, or week seem to take longer. My ongoing concern is forecasting humidity, daily, and weekly, winter or summer, as it strongly impacts the effects of temperature and resulting comfort levels.

That said, I’m very happy with this no-nonsense app which provides a great deal of information if you are so inclined, and a one-page overview for those with less time to spend.

👍 I like “Today’s chart” under "current condition”. This is very useful in studying “trends” of weather parameters. Keep this feature forever.
👎 BUG: “Wind” direction is specified incorrectly in “current condition” and on the “Today's Chart”. This is always specified in reverse direction. Example:
When NOAA database labels wind as W we normally think <— ; in reality what they mean is
—>. Wind direction "from” west not “to” west. Similarly for other directions. You can check out this convention by comparing in other weather apps.
I believe this bug can be fixed easily and should be fixed immediately.
🤔UPDATE: For little while I thought this bug got fixed as I was seeing correct wind direction. Then it was wrong again. Then right again. This is very strange since in the programming world it should be “consistently” right or wrong. It should not flip flop like this. Very strange.
🤗 One suggestion: I will be very happy if you include “atmospheric pressure” (barometer) as one more layer on “Today’s chart”, and on the “Week’s forecast” chart. Thank you.
⭐️ ⭐️ This app has some features that no other apps has; I want to use it but I am losing trust. The “data” it is reporting is suspicious.
🤷‍♂️ I also see that this app has not been updated for 3 years.

I got this phone new a month and a half ago. Always had noaa on three previous phones and loved it. The alerts don’t go off unless you pay them. Sure you can pick up your phone and see tornado warning but no alert sound. I took my phone to Verizon and nothing is set up wrong. I’m a programmer but I went for a second opinion. Two of my past phones i gave one to my mother one to my spouse. Their alerts stopped going off recently when I put the same version I have on their phones. I swore by NOAA being accurate but since April I was outside when the wind started picking up. I looked at my app clear mild wind. It started darkening I started grabbing my things but couldn’t make it in my house in time before my metal arbor held down with five rebars and copper led lights went flying twenty steps from me and hit the tree next to me. 60 mph wind gust and a tornado watch was put on local weather
