The NOAA Weather app is a useful tool for anyone who needs accurate and localized weather forecasts. It uses point forecasts from the National Weather Service (NOAA/NWS) to provide the most accurate weather information available. This app is only available in the US, and it requires your location to provide you with the most accurate weather. You can still add manual locations if you prefer. The app provides forecasts, animated radar, hourly forecast, and current conditions, all in an intuitive and easy to use interface.

The app is particularly useful for outdoor activities such as climbing, hiking, skiing, or any other activity where weather from a nearby city isn't accurate enough. The point forecasts are great for providing highly localized forecasting. If there is severe weather, this will display at the top of the forecast. However, this app currently does NOT support severe weather alerts or notifications.

In addition to the main features, there are also several differently sized widgets available which can be placed on your homescreen to provide some basic weather information, without the need to open the app. Forecast discussion is available through the menu button. The app is ad-supported, and the free version is limited to 3 saved locations. You can upgrade to remove ads and this restriction.

Overall, the NOAA Weather app is a great tool for anyone who needs accurate and localized weather forecasts. It is easy to use and provides a range of useful features, including point forecasts, animated radar, hourly forecast, and current conditions. While it does not support severe weather alerts or notifications, it is still a valuable resource for anyone who spends time outdoors.
