Know what weather is coming your way with future-cast technology, allowing you to see hi-def radar and anticipated conditions one hour into the future. Instantly know when it’s about to rain or snow with push-notifications to your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.



The Only App That…

- Shows hi-def animated past, current and future-radar in a single continuous sequence on a fluid responsive map without having to press a single button
- Can instantly show predicted rain/snow start/stop times for any point on the map
- Allows you to control the loop speed and choose the interval between individual frames from 5 minutes to 1 hour
- Automatically augments land-based radar images with latest images from NOAA satellites covering the Atlantic/Pacific oceans into one single screen



Key Features:

- Stunning hi-def and fast loading radar
- FutureCast radar for up to 60 minutes in the future
- Push-Notification for when it’s about to rain or snow at a bookmarked location
**- TurnCast – weather based GPS driving directions
- Hourly forecast for the next 24 hours, as well as 5 day forecast for any location
- Bookmark multiple locations for quick access
- Easily send radar screenshots via email or social media
- See weather forecast, severe weather warning boxes, storm direction arrows, hurricane forecast tracks, wildfires, & current drought severity on the same map
- Get fast support from within the app


Coverage Notes:

- If you live in a very-high-altitude town in Colorado (e.g. Fraser, Vail, Aspen), most likely this app will not meet your needs since radar beams get blocked by the tall mountains. Alaska coverage includes only the southern coastal areas, and does not include the Aleutian Chain. Cloud coverage does not include Alaska and Guam. Also, push-notifications for rain will not work reliably in Hawaii, Guam and Alaska. Aviation Sectional Charts are not available for Hawaii.

This app is only useful for users in the US, including all 50 states and territories including Puerto Rico and Guam.

Pros and cons of Radar Cast Elite - NOAA Hi-Def FutureCast, Push Notifications, Driving Directions, Lightning Strikes & Weather app for iPhone and iPad

Radar Cast Elite - NOAA Hi-Def FutureCast, Push Notifications, Driving Directions, Lightning Strikes & Weather app good for

This really is s fantastic weather app, the radar is great! The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because I have had this app a little over a year now and it has never came out with an update for the app in the entire year I have had it. Seems kinda crazy that there is nothing that needs updating within a year time frame. But its a great app and worth it, it is definitely one of my top weather apps besides DarkSky!
Been using this app for years. Very accurate and detailed. I love the notification widget as well. (If you cant decide between this or "Hi-def Radar", get this. Its the same thing except this has a few extra features such as push notifications.)
It can show hurricane paths and forecasts it can show every cloud to ground lighting strike in the U.S. One day back in May I saw two storms near my area both were tornado warned one was moving towards my location so I went and told my parents and my friends over text the storm hit it decided to drop a twister near west Chester and not were I live but if that twister did occur over my area I could have been dead because I was not paying attention to the weather until I saw the warning! great app!!! UPDATE: IOS 10 causes crashing. Have had the app quite twice so far still five stars just update it for IOS 10
...Ive downloaded a lot of them. It was the only one that showed Hurricane Matthews correct track. No it didnt give multiple possible outcomes. It just showed the correct track. And I could see the shorelines better than any of the other apps. This is a great app! And it has never been slow to load for me.
Ive tried many other weather apps and I always end up deleting them. Along with Dark Sky, these are the cream of the crop.
Everyone should check this app. I know its a bit pricey, but well worth it. Thanks. Jamie

Some bad moments

This forecaster is never right, I dont know where they get their information from but its terrible, DO NOT BUY!!
This app WAS great, but just deleted it. It went wonky on me and kept skipping over the areas I wanted covered. I tried everything in the book, then, final option, I deleted it so I could reinstall it. BUT, you want me to buy it again?!! Im not sure I want to throw money at something that might or might not work. Especially with no income now...
I have the paid version. Use to be the best weather app ever but now all I get is a blank screen with my location dot. Needs updated bad. Will change my review if it starts working again. I phone 6+ up to date 8/3/16
I paid for the driving directions and it no longer works. The app says support has a fast response but my experience is no response. The only thing worse than an app that doesnt work as advertised is a paid app that doesnt work. I would look at other weather apps and leave this one alone.
As bad as other apps- could even predict rain while it was pouring on my head Save your money
I used it today traveling and it didnt work so well. I think traveling at 70mph and the radar delay didnt match up at all. I was sitting home yesterday and I was waiting for the rain this app had me under yellow (moderate rainfall) 20 minutes before it even started raining!!! And I wasnt on future cast. There are many many more accurate apps out there dont get this one!
