In addition to weather radios and other alerting systems, a great tool to have in your toolbox is a weather app for your smartphone. Weather apps provide us with one of the most basic but essential tasks: the weather forecast. Depending on the weather app you choose, you can get information including forecasts, lightning notifications, severe weather notifications, humidity levels, and precipitation totals among other tidbits. A few of our favorites are:
- MyRadar
- RadarScope
- Storm Track 3 WSIL
- WPSD Radar
- KFVS12 StormTeam Weather
