Ideal for data geeks who prefer to have every single piece of information that they can possibly have on an event, RadarScope is an ideal app. Armed with a rather suprising amount of high-res data, the app displays the most up-to-date forecasts and does a marvelous job of keeping track of severe weather warnings and possible occurences. Self-descrived as the best “for weather enthusiasts and meteorologists,” the app comes with a price tag to boot. But those who have made the leap have not been disappointed. The app’s effectivess is rooted in the fact that its radar data is sourced from Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) and “next-generation radar” (NEXRAD) – both creations of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. In layman terms, that’s the source professional weather forecasters use.
