The dashboard
Live radar on your location. Watch the storm move in.
Live NEXRAD reflectivity, ~2 hours of animated loop, and active NWS warning polygons, centered on your location.
Most weather apps fire one notification and hope you saw it. Stormward escalates: email, then a push that buzzes your device even with the app closed, and it keeps going until you tap "I'm safe."
Why Stormward
A phone weather app sends one notification and moves on. If your phone was on silent, in another room, or you were asleep, you missed it. When a dangerous alert lands, tornado, flash flood, evacuation, or hazmat, Stormward doesn't stop at one: it reaches you by email, then push, and keeps going until you tap "I'm safe." If you never do, it alerts the emergency contact you chose so someone can check on you.

What you get
Free covers one location and one emergency contact, with escalating email and push alerts and the live radar. Pro adds more locations, more contacts, and louder channels for when one spot isn't enough. Founding members lock in Pro at $18/year for life.
Life-safety warnings, weather or civil, re-alert across email and push until you tap "I'm safe." No other app does this.
If you never respond, Stormward emails the person you chose, with a map pin, so someone can check on you. No weather app does this.
Severe weather, natural disasters, and the civil, evacuation, and hazmat emergencies the National Weather Service relays.
Choose which events escalate and which just log, tornado warning to special statement.
~2 hours of NEXRAD frames with play, pause, and scrub, centered on your location.
Home, family, work, the cabin. Watch every place that matters, not just where your phone is.
Text and a phone call as the loudest rungs of the ladder, for the Pro tier.
If the monitor itself ever stalls, it tells you, so silence never means "all clear."

Free covers one location, one emergency contact, escalating email and push alerts, and the live radar, no card required. Pro ($18/year) adds more locations, more emergency contacts, and soon SMS and phone-call rungs plus lightning. Founding members lock in $18/year for life, before the price goes up at full launch.
Not just weather. The National Weather Service feed carries all-hazards emergencies: tornadoes, flash floods, and hurricanes, but also evacuations, shelter-in-place, hazmat and radiological warnings, and civil danger and law-enforcement warnings. Stormward escalates the life-threatening ones until you acknowledge. Civil coverage depends on local authorities relaying to the national system, so it is broad but not guaranteed everywhere.
Cancel anytime from inside the app. If something isn't right, reply to your Stripe receipt and we'll make it right. We'd rather refund you than keep money for something that didn't work for you.
No. Stormward relays alerts from the National Weather Service and is a convenience layer, not a replacement for official sources. Always keep a NOAA Weather Radio or your local emergency channels for life-safety decisions.
Alerts come straight from the National Weather Service public API (api.weather.gov), which carries all-hazards CAP alerts relayed from FEMA IPAWS and local authorities, not just weather. Radar is NEXRAD reflectivity. Stormward runs entirely on public, authoritative government data.
