About this app

Chief Meteorologist Steve Udelson and Severe Weather Center 9 meteorologists have made the most accurate local weather app, “The WSOC-TV Weather App,” even better. Charlotte’s most powerful weather app includes the following:

Summary of Features:
- There is a new radar in the weather app that matches the radar found on other digital platforms and also includes future radar to provide you with a likely path and outlook of storms. The radar has 250 meter resolution, the highest available.
- New tracks - We added earthquakes and storm tracks as layers in the radar. Now you can track the location and magnitude of earthquakes as well for storms the speed, direction and type. Tap the “storm symbols” icon in the radar to see the list.
- Locally crafted forecasts. Select a location inside the Charlote market to see a local forecast created by WSOC-TV’s local weather experts. The app tells you which member of Severe Weather Center 9 crafted the local forecast. National applications that come pre-loaded on your phone don’t have local experts focused solely on getting the local forecast right every day.
- Push alerts are FREE for more than 25 alert types including everything from tornado warnings to winter storm warnings and tropical storm alert types.
- Now you can scroll through the home screen to access most of what you need or want on one tab.
- Place a location pin precisely where you want it for a specific address or any position on a map. When saving a location you can name it exactly how you want it.
- The app works with identical features on tablet and handset.
- Additional items added seasonally

The weather app also has these critical benefits and features:
- The radar zooms down to your neighborhood or zooms out to check radar anywhere in the country.
- The app provides Location-Based alerts. While many other apps offer alerts based on your county, This app supports a more precise type of alert issued for the most dangerous types of weather threats. More precision means you get alerts that matter to you, not false alarms.
- Current conditions, hourly and daily forecasts for any location you enter.
- High resolution satellite cloud imagery
- Ability to add and save locations
- A fully integrated GPS for current location awareness
- Additional items added seasonally

*Data and alerting available for the United States only.

Channel 9 will always be my choice, in news, local stories and especially the weather. I also have the News App. What I like most is you're able to customize alerts that you would like to be notified of and which alarm sounds and notifications you receive. Alarms come through nicely and that gives me comfort, knowing I may be able to get to safety, if needed. And, they always go live when a weather warning is in the broadcasting area and stay with us until the threats pass. Thank you, WSOC! 💕

Can't click on alert icons for details - used to be able to click on shaded flood areas for details, also the icons for tornadoes, hail, severe storms, etc - when you clicked on them, more important details would pop up. Hasn't worked in over a week, not good with all the tornadoes we've been having. Can you please fix it so it's interactive again? FYI - WBTV, WSOC and WCNC all use this same app, same version. All have the same issue, no interactive alert icons.

I've tried other weather apps I upgraded my phone and forgot about the WSOC weather app. I just like the layout of it, the flow of the information in this app to me is the best. I don't have to hunt for what I want and that makes me happy! So thank you to whoever designed this app and please don't change it!!!!!
