The Weather App on your iPhone is awful (sorry, Apple). I’ve seen tons of screenshots of the upcoming heatwave forecast, and the Weather App is off by up to 5-10 degrees. National Weather Service forecasts are the most accurate source, but unfortunately its website looks like it was built in 2003. @EverythingWX (not an ad) is the only app I know of that displays NWS forecasts in a great user interface. If you are wondering why the Weather App’s forecasts are so inaccurate, it’s because it only uses select raw weather data without any trained meteorologists reviewing it. There are over 120 NWS offices across the US that issue fantastic forecasts using far more models and tools, with real humans reviewing the data. Take the Weather App’s forecast for San Francisco, it’s only forecasting a high of 83°F on Tuesday, while the NWS is forecasting 88°F. The NWS also uses a point forecast system where each grid square covers a 2.5 km × 2.5 km area, which more accurately captures microclimates, perfect for a city like San Francisco. Use the NWS forecast this week and ditch the Weather App.

Something I may experiment with in the EverythingWeather app is the ability to get quick AI summaries of the forecast discussion with the tap of a button on the home page. Not sure if this would be useful or not?

@EverythingWX Will MRMS smoothing be added in the future? I believe it will make the app much more appealing to my family members and the general public, as it will feel more like the radars on most weather apps!

@EverythingWX Feature idea: When there is a mesoscale or precipitation discussion for your current location or a preset location, a small pop-up appears on the home screen, similar to that of the SPC and WPC risk, and a notification can be optionally sent.

Something else I’m considering adding for pro subscribers… days 8-12 forecast data from the NBM. May add some select probability info as well. Happy to hear any feedback on this for anyone that might have any!

@EverythingWX Would love to see a little pop up on the home screen when your location is within WSSI, just like with SPC and WPC outlooks!

My @WxFront wishlist, relatively in order: - Desktop (specifically MacOS) - Quad-pane display on iPad and desktop - Custom location markers to make it easier to monitor the radar for those we care about (thread)

@TNstormchaserWX @RileyMilde MacOS is very close. PC is still a ways out. If only we could buy every PC user a Mac and every Android user an iPhone, we'd have some very happy prospective WF users! 🙂
