## Ora Weather Description
Ora turns the weather forecast into clear, simple guidance, so you know exactly what to expect before you step outside.

Weather shapes your whole day: what you wear, how you travel, what you plan. Ora reads the conditions for you and shows what actually matters right now, in a way you can take in at a glance. And when severe weather moves in, Ora tells you what's happening and what to do next.

What you get with Ora

* A clear daily forecast, tailored to your location
* Live weather radar to see rain as it moves toward you
* A 7-day forecast to plan the days ahead
* Governmental advisories  the moment conditions turn
* Rain timing for the next 15 minutes, so you know whether to wait it out
* Your day at a glance, in three seconds

Get the full picture with Ora+

* Full radar, minute by minute, up to 12 hours ahead
* A 14-day forecast, hour by hour, for planning you can trust
* Exact rain start and stop times, down to the minute
* Hurricane tracker with the full storm path
* Storm cells, lightning, and detailed wind maps
* Morning and evening reports for every location you care about
* No ads, ever

Why Ora

- Calm by default. Simple when skies are clear, serious when they're not.
- Built around you. The weather that's relevant to your day, not the same forecast for everyone.
- Reliable when it counts. Clear guidance you can act on, from accurate, trusted data.

Ora works on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, with home screen widgets that keep the forecast one glance away.

Feel ready. Every day.

Ora+ is an auto-renewing subscription, available weekly (with a 3-day free trial) or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at purchase and renews automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Prices are shown in the app.

## Ora Weather Reviews in United States

### ***** "Always gives correct forecast"
Easy to see at a glance and helps me plan my day especially with 3 dogs
-- Gloria522, 2024-12-29

### **--- "Ten day weather forecast"
Whatever you have done to your recent App upgrade has made reading the daily highs and lows over ten days hard to read. For example: a typical day may look like this. 
27   4…. So, what’s the high?
It was not like this before
-- Frank B W, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Nonstop Notifications"
Fog alerts several times a day, couldn't find any option to adjust settings to only receive relevant warnings. Apparently fog is time sensitive and requires constant reminders. Serves the same function as looking out the window.
-- Leni Dobo, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Jesters"
This is a child’s app 

Maybe 2-5 year old 
It’s not up to date with anything 
I’m a truck driver that needs 
Weather when I touch/ask for it but it’s not possible here.
-- Giancarlo1013, 2024-12-26

### ***** "MY NOAA"
The best information
-- find homes, 2024-12-23

### ***-- "Radar"
The quality is very poor
-- Owen klamm, 2024-12-19

### ***** "Weather radar"
Love to see update where rain is and which direction it’s going
-- baytown fan, 2024-12-08

### *---- "Not"
Doesn't match other radars and gives fake alerts
-- Theguynonono, 2024-12-02

### *---- "Weather radar"
I’m not considering this is a good app, weather is for the national security, why people have to pay that amount of money for? This is not really human when people can die because of the desinformación, you guys sock!!
-- Eddiecfgs, 2024-11-18

### *---- "Garbage"
This app is so disappointing. Doesn’t even know where I am and doesn’t give correct forecast. Waste of money
-- jetsfan85747, 2024-11-10
