NBC 12 First Warning Weather app review: get the latest weather reports delivered directly to your iPhone or iPad

Introduction

Providing nothing but the very latest and most accurate reports of storms, hurricanes, and other severe weather conditions, as well as detailed general weather forecasts, this app should give you all the information you need about the weather in your local area.

The best iPad apps for weather

This app actually follows a very similar formula to many other comparable apps within the Weather genre of the App Store. With that said, I do think that the developer has done a good job of sticking with a tried and tested interface design to provide some very solid weather reporting.

If you need an accurate and reliable weather app then you’ve come to the right place with NBC 12 First Warning Weather.

The first thing you’ll want to do when you start using this app is tap on the house icon in the top right-hand corner in order to use your device’s integrated GPS and determine your current location. This will enable you to view detailed weather information for your local area within a few seconds.

You can also store multiple locations within NBC 12 First Warning Weather, so this is ideal for monitoring the weather at your place of work or perhaps if you want to keep an eye on severe weather conditions for more vulnerable relatives who live out of town.

The basic home Map view serves as the home screen for this app, providing a gorgeous radar map image which can be animated to show live movement of weather fronts. At the bottom of the screen you’ll also notice overviews for today’s, yesterday’s, and tomorrow’s weather, as well as the current temperature, humidity, and more.

 

Fantastic Forecasting

The 10 Day section provides you with, you guessed it, a 10-day forecast which can be viewed as either a graphical overview or tapped to bring up more detailed information for each day, including high and low temperatures, precipitation, UV Index, and more.

If you need a more detailed forecast of today’s weather then the Hourly Forecast is well worth taking a look at as you’ll be able to see an hour-by-hour breakdown of the current conditions. You'll also see details such as temperature changes, and wind speed and direction.

Finally, we have the NBC12 Weather Video section which features a collection of live streaming and archived video content delivered directly from the kind folks at the NBC 12 studios, so if you’d prefer a little more personality to go with your forecasts then this is the section you’ll want to see the most.
