GET SEVERE WEATHER ALERTS FOR YOUR EXACT LOCATION

When life threatening weather is approaching, accuracy is everything. Storm Shield is designed to give you highly precise, storm based alerts for tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, winter storms, and severe thunderstorms directly through voice and push notifications. Unlike traditional county based alerts that often trigger false alarms if a storm is only clipping the edge of your region, this app uses your exact location within the county. This means you only get warned when your specific area is actually in the threatened zone.

ENJOY A HIGH DEFINITION RADAR AND FORECAST HUB

Opening the app immediately brings up a beautiful, high definition radar map right on your home screen, allowing you to instantly see exactly what is happening in your area. Beyond just tracking severe weather, it functions as a comprehensive daily weather hub. You can easily view current conditions, check the hourly breakdown, and look ahead at the daily forecasts. You can even save multiple additional locations to make sure your family members and friends are staying safe in their respective cities.

TRACK DANGEROUS STORMS IN REAL TIME

The map is packed with detailed layers that let you view severe weather alerts exactly where they are happening. By tapping on active alerts, you can instantly pull up crucial information regarding flood watches, tornado warnings, and winter storm advisories. You can display multiple layers at the same time to track hurricane and tropical storm forecast paths, monitor coastal and marine alerts, check wind speeds, measure expected snowfall, and even review road weather conditions before you start driving. It essentially puts the power of a NOAA weather radio right in your pocket.

UPGRADE FOR ADVANCED WEATHER TRACKING

If you want to take your forecasting to the next level, the app offers an optional Premium Weather subscription for a small monthly fee. Upgrading unlocks powerful forecasting tools, including a Future Radar layer that lets you see where precipitation is heading and a Future Temperature Map to plan your day. It also includes an advanced Storm Tracks feature, which shows you exactly how fast a storm is moving and precisely where it will hit in the next few minutes.

STAY AHEAD OF LIGHTNING STRIKES

For those who spend a lot of time outdoors or just want extra peace of mind, there is a dedicated Lightning subscription available. This add on provides immediate push notifications whenever lightning strikes near any of your saved locations. It also populates the map with real time lightning strike data within a 100 mile radius of your selected area, helping you know exactly when to head indoors.

MANAGING YOUR APP SUBSCRIPTIONS

Getting started is simple, and managing your upgrades is completely hassle free. Any subscription payments are charged directly to your Google Play Account once you confirm the purchase. These subscriptions will automatically renew, but you are always in complete control. If you want to turn off auto renewal, you can easily do so by navigating to the subscriptions menu in the Google Play Store before your current billing period ends. If you happen to catch a free trial, just remember to cancel before the trial period is up if you want to avoid transitioning into a paid plan. Made possible by The E.W. Scripps Company, this tool is built to keep you informed, prepared, and safe no matter what the weather brings.
