"Am I included in the warning?"
Weve heard and answered this question thousands of times.
With Tornado GPSs search function, never has it been faster or easier to determine if you or your family members are located in the path of severe weather.
Tornado GPS™ is also the first app that can estimate the time and distance between you and any severe weather alerts.
Some apps only let you when youre directly inside of a alert. We feel thats too late, especially if youre travelling.
We automatically display this critical information at the bottom of the app in miles, minutes and kilometers.
If you click the bottom of the app, it will now open up the Details page!
On that page, you can scroll through the details of every alert near your location or any other location youve searched and/or saved into your favourites!
3D Radar:
Weve also included the first ever, mobile 3D Radar!
Now youll be able to fly right into the eye of a Tornado or Hurricane in real-time and see the areas that the storm is impacting.
Facebook Community:

Were working towards adding instant access to our Facebook alerts through the app but for now, search for "Oklahoma Tornado Watch" or "Ontario Blizzard Watch" and join in on the severe weather discussion!
So, thats Tornado GPS™!
Personal distance and time estimations from any severe weather warnings or detectable activity, accurate severe weather forecasts located on our Facebook pages (and eventually on the app), an active online, passionate community and the first ever mobile 3D Radar!
Thank you for your support and well be bringing more and more updates to Tornado GPS a.s.a.p.!
Sincerely,
- Adam Skinner
(Founder of Tornado GPS, Inc.)
P.S. Some future updates include:
- Tornado GPS™ will eventually compare your location to any Tornado activity such as funnel cloud reports, damage reports and advanced technologies like Tornado Markers or Rotation Markers.
- Automatic notifications when the app is turned off. For now, you have to have the app open to get the notifications.
- Text message alerts service working in combination with Tornado GPS, texting you critical specifically based on your GPS location! This will be a subscription service but will allow you to receive alerts even when youre not connected to the internet!
- Well eventually include the accurate Tornado and severe weather forecasts from the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma. Their brilliant Meteorologists have proven time and time again that theyre very accurate at forecasting Tornadoes and severe weather.
- Tornado GPS™ will eventually compare your GPS location to these amazingly accurate forecasts and in some cases, youll be notified up to eight days in advance of a potential Tornado Outbreak.
- For Canadian users and those who are close to the Canadian border, well also notify you of any severe forecasts from Environment Canada and/or our custom severe weather forecasts.
- Etc, etc, etc.
Thank you again everyone and were working hard to continuously improve the app!!
