We've been building WeatherWise, an extreme weather tracking app for your browser and iPhone with Android support on the way. You can track severe weather with the real-time, super-resolution weather radar available for the US, South Korea, Canada and Colombia. Our weather alerts, discussions and tropical related datasets are streamed instantly from the NWS into the app.
Thus far we support: - Real-time high resolution weather radar - For all available products - For all available elevations (tilts) - Playback synced with weather alerts, storm tracks and lightning - Data inspector showing the underlying value and 'gate altitude' - Near real-time satellite imagery (GOES-East & West) covering North & South America - All the outlooks from the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) - All severe weather alerts - Warnings - Statements - Watches - Discussions - Tropical weather updates - Storms - Disturbances
Our business model is freemium where we take free datasets and offer them conveniently in our app for free. We have plans for premium features which will add additional value on top.
We're rapidly iterating based on user feedback and pushing improvements every week. Feel free to follow us on [X](https://x.com/WxWiseApp) or [BlueSky](https://bsky.app/profile/wxwise.app)

It's very easy to deploy sites and even runs http://localtunnel.me/ to share your locally hosted site over the web.
The name was inspired by a post that gave us the idea, not to say it'll stay as this. I'm not too sure about this issue you're having, I can't replicate it.
If you go to http://lolbtn.co.uk/YOUR_HASH/stats you can use this as an API. Here is an example: http://lolbtn.co.uk/65h8r9/stats Edit: We just created this for you as our first reviewer, as thanks!
I wouldn't discount men from using this for purposes other than gawking. The idea is men would also download this, scan through and find what they'd like their SO to buy. We plan on rolling out a 'Share Wishlist' feature, that'll allow couples to choose together.
Very good read!
I haven't yet decided upon a direction to take it to be honest.
I do have an update planned, I didn't anticipate the current amount of attention to be honest.
