KLTV StormTracker Weather app review: dedicated weather forecasting for the good people of Tyler, Texas

Reviews

Introduction

Coming directly to your iPhone and iPad from the KLTV studios is this fantastic resource that provides dedicated weather forecasting for the good people of Tyler, Texas, including severe weather notifications, live radar map imagery, and much more.

The best iPhone apps for storm alerts

This app makes a very worthy addition to the Weather category of the App Store, and is set to act as a more than adequate source of information for Tyler residents. It’s great to see such a well developed app be specifically aimed at a small region such as this.

I’m also very pleased to see that the developer has made the effort of including live streaming and archived video content from the KLTV studios. A lot of developers tend to neglect this in similar apps, but you’ll find loads of videos to enjoy a more human feel to your forecasts.

View Live Radar Map Imagery for Tyler, Texas

KLTV StormTracker Weather has been designed to provide the local residents of Tyler in Texas with a dedicated source of weather forecasting across a range of different timeframes and visual formats, and I think the developer has done a pretty decent job overall.

The first thing you’ll see when you initially start using this app is the Map section, which shows live radar map imagery of Tyler and the surrounding regions, complete with overlays for rain, snow, and other weather fronts as they make their way throughout the area.

If you look at the bottom of the section, you’ll also see the current conditions, including things like the temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and a few other useful tidbits.

The Video section I mentioned above is also worth checking out, but beyond this you’ll find more basic weather forecasting in the 10 Day and Hourly sections, which cater to their own respective timeframes.

Within these sections you’ll find all manner of information, including basic factors such as high and low temperatures and chance of precipitation, in addition to other handy factoids such as the sunrise and sunset times, and the UV Index.
