I've found "Weather Radio" to be a good app for storm warnings, etc. It uses the phone's GPS to localize the warnings to your location, or you can choose from multiple saved locations. Many alert setting options, and it's available for both Android and iOS phones. The Android version is $4.99 and well worth it in my opinion.
Does this require your smartphone to be connected to wifi or 3/4g?
I will be on the road for a few months. It would be nice to find a weather radio to automatically scan for reception rather than wait to be programmed.
Ideally, an app that would send warnings (depending on my location) as I drive. ie Tornado Warnings.
Best of all worlds would be to have weather alerts over my GPS Radio. I know this is available in some units, just not mine.
Right now I would settle for a regular weather radio that will just scan to find a local station.PS _ I am right now replacing a Radio Shack (piece of crap) that has just decided not to work.
Thanks,
Caryl
