** WEATHER ALERTS FOR YOUR EXACT LOCATION **
Storm Shield is "a detail-rich app for weather bugs, with an emphasis on smart, active, automatic alerts for severe weather... Its ability to pinpoint data to your location could literally be a life-saver."
- reviews.cnet.com


Turn your smartphone into an emergency weather radio. Get storm-based alerts for winter storm season, tornado, hurricane, flood, thunderstorm and other life-threatening weather events via voice and push notification. Storm Shield delivers alerts using NOAA polygon warnings.



>> NOW IN VERSION 2.5: Get School Closings for Baltimore, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, and Tulsa.



** HOW WEATHER ALERTS WORK **
>> Storm Shield uses new precise storm-based alerts, and alerts you to severe weather based on your exact location within a county. Other services use county-based alerts which result in people at one end of a county receiving alerts for weather that will not impact them.


>> If your current or saved locations fall inside a NWS watch or warning box, you'll receive alerts from Storm Shield.


>> If your locations are outside a watch or warning box (even though you may be in the storm and the county), you would not receive a warning from Storm Shield.



** WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING **
>> "During the roughest part of the storm I was constantly getting push messages... Thanks for developing this amazing app!"
- Joe C.


>> "I love this app because it finds your location... GREAT APP! Someone did what was needed, well worth the small price of it!"
- Tina A.



** BATTERY TIPS **
>> Storm Shield is designed to make a negligible impact on your battery.


>> Turn off Location Tracking and instead set one of your five locations to where you are most often.


>> You can throttle up or down Storm Shield's Location Tracking to balance location accuracy and battery life.



** KEY FEATURES **
>> INTERACTIVE RADAR MAP: See Hurricane and Tropical Storm forecast tracks.


>> MAP OVERLAYS: See where on the map watches and warnings are issued by switching between map overlays.


>> FOLLOW ME: Get alerts no matter where you are in the United States.


>> FRIENDS AND FAMILY: Save FIVE additional locations to make sure friends and family at home, work, or out of state stay safe.
