Ok what this screen shot shows is what alerts I want to receive in the settings for all of my locations. Guys there is even a Earth Quake alert along with coastal flooding for those of you that live on the coast. And even Hurricane watches and warnings, like I need them here in Missouri! But they are all there!

Now this is where it gets deep! If you have read the Thread, I talked a little about the National Storm Prediction Center in Norman, OK. They issue a lot of the storm warnings as well as your local office. Plus they do all of the National Predictions on storms. What the above screen shot shows is the day 1 out look all the way thru the day 3 out look. Granted its a little more detailed than most folks want to know about the weather. But this is what your local NWS office uses to make your forecast plus info from other means like weather balloons and other data. So some of you guys can go to the break room at work and just blow the minds of some of your buddies with all your new weather knowledge! Any bets won on weather forecasts are to be split with yourself and Slab!

Ok this screen shot shows no active alerts and also shows in the top right corner that it was night time when I snapped the shot! You can also click on the play button and hear the 5 day forecast for that location. You can also see it in print too just by clicking on the screen.

Ok this is the last one for tonight! And I am going to cover a lot of stuff here. On the left top just left of Springfield, MO those 3 lines are the menu bar. Ok on the right of Springfield, MO is shows a diamond with a ! in the middle of it. Notice this is dark, if its YELLOW in color that means there are alerts for Springfield, MO. Now below all of that what I have done is clicked on the daily forecast and expanded it to show hourly daily forecast with all sorts of cool stull like the feels like temp, wind direction and speed, pressure and dew point.

I have had several folks PM me telling me thank you and also some have commented that on here. I am not doing this for any thanks! The reason I am doing this is because I fully believe that having some weather information along with a weather cell phone app safes lives. And I have met several great folks on this site that I would like to see stick around for a while longer!

Guys when your family has been hit by a tornado you have a different out look on life. When you have a tornado siren within 1/8 mile of your home and it doesn't go off when a tornado is in the south part of the city. All because some green pea dispatcher didn't think it mattered because the tornado was heading straight east!

Tornados are not anything to play with! We have always heard that tornados only travel North by North East. They never go to the South or Southeast! YEAH RIGHT! Several well known and very experienced Storm Chasers lost their lives or good friends at Moore, OK last year when the big one turned south to south east and caught them off guard!
