Changes:
Our team has been hard at work improving your Tempest experience, and this release brings a fresh look to your tablet display, making it even easier to access and enjoy your weather data. Users can now take advantage of a revamped station display designed specifically for tablets. Effortlessly check current conditions and forecast data on a larger screen, providing a more immersive and detailed view of your Tempest Weather System information. Enabling the new tablet display is a breeze. Open your Tempest App settings, scroll to Full-Screen Mode, and choose Standard.
We’re constantly working to improve your Tempest experience. In addition bug fixes and performance enhancements, we have added National Weather Service Watches, Warnings and Advisories to this release.
If there is an active Watch, Warning or Advisory issued by the NWS for your station or a saved location, you will now see that information on the main forecast screen. Tapping the Watch, Warning or Advisory will show you the full detailed information as provided by the NWS (U.S. only).

Better Forecast UI Improvements
We streamlined the UI so that we are not displaying the same information in multiple places. We also added sunrise and sunset data to each forecast day.

The Station Dashboard is now home to the More Current Conditions section that was previously on the Forecast view. This puts all of your detailed station information in one place.

This build includes primarily bug fixes and performance enhancements. Here are a few of the bugs we squashed with this release:
- Fixed issue with negative lightning distance display
- Fixed precision issue with rain accumulation display in the More Current Conditions section of the Forecast view
- Fixed app crash for users who had zero winds in their hourly forecast. (Those calm winds really tripped us up!)
Bug fixes and performance enhancements
More Data at the top of the Main View
- The “More Current Conditions” section at the bottom of the Main View has always been a great way to see more data from your station. In this release, we are moving a few of those key values up to the Top Box on the Main View. In addition to the wind and UV values, now you can quickly see the humidity, pressure and pressure trend right when you open the app. If it is raining or there is recent lightning in your area, you will also see those data points in the Top Box as well.
Rapid Wind Updates
- Rapid Wind (wind speed & direction values reported every three seconds) is making its way to the Top Box of the Main View! In addition, the rapid wind display on the Card View has received an update to match the new rapid wind visualization on the Main View.
Additional bug fixes and minor performance enhancements are also included in this build.
Better, faster, stronger. That’s the updated Tempest Smart Weather app in a nutshell, but here are some specifics:
- A New Look: We’ve updated the branding and design of the app, transitioning the logos and app icon from Smart Weather to Tempest.
- A Better Forecast: The main view now includes the current conditions at your station, along with a 10-day hourly forecast.
But this isn’t your average forecast! Our atmospheric modeling team is using data from your station, combined with data from the ECMWF & NOAA forecast models,
as well as our own in-house modeling suite. Leveraging powerful machine learning techniques, we’re able to guarantee a scary accurate forecast that only gets better over time.
