Description

Everything you need, nothing you don't. Florida Storms is not just another weather app with a radar. It's a clean and fast interactive map that alerts you to every storm, while at the same time delivers credible real-­‐time audio and text alerts from the Florida Public Radio Emergency Network. Using a combination of Baron's exclusive storm track algorithms and the expertise of a meteorologist, you're certain to receive the most up-­to-­date information on any potential weather hazard.
View the latest tropical weather updates from the National Hurricane Center, find out if you’re in an evacuation zone, check if you're in the path of a dangerous storm surge, or just review a checklist of items your family should have in case of a weather emergency. Once you have Florida Storms, you won't need multiple apps to prepare for the next "big one". Whether it's just a routine lightning storm that might send you indoors or a major hurricane threatening your neighborhood, Florida Storms is the simplest and fastest way to stay informed of mother nature's next move.
Features of Florida Storms include...
- Live radio stream of the nearest Florida Public Radio Emergency Network partner station, with option to choose from 12 others in the state in case of evacuation or traveling
- Push notifications from multiple sources, including the National Weather Service, the National Hurricane Center, Baron's exclusive Doppler radar, and local emergency management personnel
- The ability to set up alerts for other locations, such as your second home, vacation or evacuation destination.
- Interactive real-time mapping of high-resolution radar, lightning, future radar, satellite, hurricanes and forecast models.
- Our favorite feature: “The feeds” offer real-­time filtering of information from official sources, such as the nearest National Weather Service office, the National Hurricane Center, Florida Department of Transportation, the FPREN Storm Center and local emergency management offices.
- A simple, effective way to learn how to prepare for the next weather disaster, including what to do before, during, and after a storm
- Updates from certified FPREN meteorologists, including Facebook Live videos and blog articles.

Florida Storms Reviews

Awesome little app

Synth Pilot on

United States

Has no ads, made by a university, instant warning notifications, lightning detector, and a bunch of other neat and useful features.

Use to be great

Ebot Johnson on

United States

This was a great app years ago. Not sure what happened, but the “what we’re watching” stopped working and no longer do you see Hurrican trajectory. Developer please fix this as this app was literally a life saver.

Loss of information???

tampamol on

United States

I loved this app, always where I went for storm info. As of Sept 1, 2022 I can’t get anything???? Just in time for peak hurricane season. Perfect timing 🙄

Slipping…

Squrilbait on

United States

This app used to be my go to weather app for Florida. Over the past year the tropical weather page has become very buggy and unresponsive. Figured it was just a glitch between updates, but it keeps getting worse to the point that hurricane mapping for storms doesn’t even load.

What a joke!

huffdaddymac on

United States

They only update this thing when it's convenient. Sad use of state funds.

Old

JohnMc1977 on

United States

App is rarely updated.

Crashes

goffpatr on

United States

Unusable because it crashes before it can even load.

Great program

CaptainP75 on

United States

Best free radar type program I’ve seen. Besides free and no ads, it has worked wherever I’ve traveled: GA, SC, NC, VA, and always shows wx that’s going on around me. I recommend it. Paul

Alerts do not work

ayeeeee on

United States

Alert feature is broke.

My “go to” weather app living in Florida

R7A7F on

United States

Excellent app, and as it is Florida Public Radio, no adds. This is good for everyday thunderstorms, but ..excellent.. for hurricane season. Overlays show forecast track, warning areas, etc. Easy to access evacuation info, zones and checklist. All the information you need is here and easy to find. Living through Hurricane Dorian’s approach as a CAT 5, this has been invaluable.
