KGO-TV San Francisco. With ABC7 Weather: SF/Bay Area, when threatening weather is nearby your phone can be set to alert you!
Weather alerts are read aloud for you so you don’t have to stop to read the screen. It’s the power of a NOAA Weather Radio combined with the accuracy of AccuWeather and ABC7 News for San Francisco and the Bay Area all in one convenient app! There’s no other app like it.
With the FOLLOW ME feature you’ll stay safe when you’re on the go. ABC7 Weather: SF/Bay Area can alert you to severe weather wherever you are -- whether you’re on your daily commute in the Bay Area or travelling anywhere across the U.S.
Now you can submit your own weather reports! Snap a photo or shoot a video and place it on the interactive map so others can see what the weather is like in your area. Plus, share a fun photo or video weather postcard with your friends or family! Snap a shot, shoot a video and add a caption — that’s it and you’re ready to share it on social media or e-mail.
ABC7 Weather: SF/Bay Area is fully interactive; Zoom down to get a street level view of live conditions. And of course, get current conditions, hourly and long-term forecasts right at your fingertips.
FEATURES:
* Follow Me – Activate this feature so that you get weather alerts wherever you are, anywhere in the U.S. No matter where you travel, the app will help keep you safe.
* Set a static location – In addition to the Follow Me feature, you can set three (3) additional locations to receive alerts on. So if you’re on the road, you could still get alerts for what’s threatening your home, or where a loved one lives.
* Audio alerts – Listen to weather alerts just like a NOAA Weather Radio, so you can be informed and keep moving.
* Submit your own weather reports: Pick a weather condition and add a photo and your weather report will show up on the interactive map for others to see!
* Weather postcards: Snap a pic and add a caption, and share it with your friends or family!
* Current Conditions, Hourly Forecasts and 7 Day Forecasts.
* Video forecasts and live weather video (when available).
Latest reviews of ABC7 Weather: SF/Bay Area app for iPhone and iPad
Easy to use. Love it.
The temperature shown on the app doesnt match the ABC tv weather report.
Such a great app! Its very accurate.
I like abcs local forecast better than Yahoos, but the location features need work- searching for a local city to add (or any city) led to a non responsive search bar, and using the GPS found me fine, but kept the GPS on after the app was closed (closed app all the way and locked phone). The only way to shut off the GPS was to block the weather app in location settings. Probably turning off the phone would work too. iOS 7.1.2 on a 4s phone.
Nice interactive map with current location, zoom, scroll, easy controls. But it seems to have zero practical weather info. Theres an option to turn on Hurricane overlay. So that could come in handy. : / How about the temperature? Check out Mr. Chilly as a template and expand to Bay Area please.
