    I know weather will be on the watch. But some advanced watches like Sunnto have storm alarms where the pressure drops. Would be great to have a app interact with this function.

    There are rumors of over 1,000 apps for the Watch, so who knows? Might just happen.

    The WeatherUnderground's Storm app will give notifications of precip/lightning on the phone, which will show up on the Watch...

    Agreed lots of time sensitive information doesn't require an additional watch app. They will simply be handled in a notification the same as a text message or anything else of any urgency.

    I use IFTTT to get sms alerts for Suffolk, so those should transfer to the watch.

    Anyone know if there's a radar app for the watch yet?

    Something from the Red Cross's Tornado app would be great.

    RadarScope works well. You set up a list of your favorite radar sites, and you can also animate the images. Right now there is no zooming, but it still works well.

    Are you asking if the Watch will work when it snows? If so, why wouldn't it? Every other watch and smartphone works when it snows.

    That's not good for the watch or an iPhone.

    I use Darksky and Storm for my notifications. Darksky has an Watch app and the latest update gives more info on the screen when you get an alert. Storm alerts come via notifications.

    Yea, another thumbs up for DARKSKY. I've used it for about 4 years now, and have been pleased with its localized forecasts.

    My local TV station's weather app does that. I get a pop up with a voice telling me how far away the lightning is.

    I use lightning cast which is subscription based. It sends alerts to the watch instantly.
    My only gripe is it doesn't "follow" you like the defunct pinpoint lightning app did. What this means is it will inform you when a cloud to ground strike has occurred within the set warning distance (typ 30 miles) from a saved location.

    That's how my local TV weather app, WAFF, does it. But I haven't seen any warning over 5 or 6 miles away.
