At Tier One (?$9.99/year), you get real-time animated lighting data and up to 30 frames of radar data, among other features. In addition to the $9.99 download, RadarScope offers subscription tiers that offer more data. That gives RadarScope a lot more detail than your typical weather apps. RadarScope's makers say the imagery in this app uses native radar data rendered in its original radial format.

The app also helps you track the paths of storms using data from the U.S.

With RadarScope installed, you can trck everything from tornados and severe thunderstorms to flash floods and marine warnings. Hourly forecasts are available as well.Serious weather watchers will want to turn to RadarScope for detailed satellite views that include NEXRAD Level 3 and Super-Resolution radar data. Enter a location, and you’ll get the current conditions and forecast (updated every 15 minutes), as well as in-depth statistics and timelines of conditions like wind speed, visibility, and humidity as they’ve been tracked throughout the day. Storm is billed as “the Best App for the Worst Weather,” and it’s kind of hard to argue with that. Weather Underground culls information from more than 200,000 stations worldwide. Now they’ve updated their offerings with a new inclement weather app for mobile devices called Storm from Weather Underground. Since it launched in 1995, has taken a unique approach to weather forecasting, relying on both data from public agencies and a sprawling network of citizen scientists using their own personal weather stations. The sticky humidity and heat that’s bothering apartment dwellers in urban basins in the southwest aren’t fun, but up in the mountains they could easily trigger surprise thunderstorms and monsoon rains, not to mention dangerous flash floods in the canyons below - even when the skies are clear. Beyond filling the time with idle small talk at the water cooler, weather reports can have a huge affect on our trail time plans … and many times, those weather conditions are more than an inconvenience - they can be downright life threatening. As someone who spends a significant amount of time outside, odds are you probably pay a bit more attention to weather reports and forecasts than your Average Joe Coworker.
