This option stands out as a weather app by providing current cloud coverage information but also info on snow levels and active fires and hotspots in the region.

Although the app does provide the same information as others, including the current temperature, the chance of rain, and real feel temperature, it focuses on the hourly radar, which is the first thing you’ll see when you open the app.

Users who pay for a subscription to NOAA will be able to access more than just the incoming rain or snow; instead, it will also offer the wind speed, current fires, and snow depth, and will track incoming hurricanes. As for storms, instead of counting the seconds between a flash of lightning and thunder, the app will monitor the lightning strikes for you, to specify when the storm is hitting.
