Does RadarScope allow you to view individual stations?
And does it push notifications for tornados for your area?

I use "Live Weather" on my tablet and it gives a live wallpaper of current conditions. I also just click on my WXwebsite from the tablet to get everything else needed, radars, forecasts, warnings, etc. Works great like this.

No it doesnt push notifications but its the best radar app out there period. I use wxalertsks for my severe weather alerts. Its free. They might have one for you state. Do a search on the app store.

There's a pyranometer App which is explained here. You need to stick some patterned paper on your camera for it, to make sure it catches diffuse sunlight as well. Then you can compare diffuse vs. direct sunlight, horizontal irradiance morning vs. noon, etc.

I snagged Hi-Def Radar,  a tornado app from KCCI, Weatherlink free from Davis, and a freebee from weather underground.

Hi there,

Where do I find that app on the App Store? I typed in "Live Weather" but it just comes up as Weather+ or Weather Live?

Thanks

Will
