The WSBTV Weather App, developed by Chief Meteorologist Brad Nitz and Severe Weather Team 2, has been enhanced to provide users with the most accurate and comprehensive local weather information. The app now features a new radar with 250-meter resolution, offering a detailed view of current weather conditions and future radar projections to track the likely path of storms. Users can also access earthquake and storm tracks as layers in the radar, allowing them to monitor the location, magnitude, speed, direction, and type of these events. With push alerts for over 25 alert types, including tornado warnings and winter storm alerts, users can stay informed about potential weather hazards in their area.
In addition to its advanced radar capabilities, the WSBTV Weather App offers a user-friendly interface that allows for easy navigation and access to essential weather information. Users can customize their experience by selecting a specific location within the Atlanta market to receive locally crafted forecasts from WSB’s weather experts. The app also enables users to save and name locations of interest, providing personalized weather updates for different areas. Whether using a tablet or handset, users can enjoy identical features and functionality, ensuring a seamless weather tracking experience across devices.
Furthermore, the WSBTV Weather App provides real-time updates on area storms and forecasts, including Severe Weather Team 2’s 5-day Forecast with the “Weekend Always in View” feature. The app’s Live Stormtracker 2HD Radar offers detailed views of weather conditions at the neighborhood level or across the country, while Location-Based Storm Alerts deliver precise notifications for the most dangerous weather threats. With current conditions, hourly and daily forecasts, interactive radar, satellite imagery, and hourly updates, users can access a wealth of weather information to plan their activities and stay safe. The app's integration of GPS technology ensures accurate location awareness, making it a valuable tool for users seeking reliable and up-to-date weather information in the United States.
