Backshear

Radar you can read. Every storm since 1991, bought once.

Backshear is pro-grade weather radar made legible. Scrub the timeline back through every warned storm since 1991, watch live NEXRAD radar, and let a plain-language narrator read a storm's radar measurements (reflectivity, velocity, distance and bearing) in plain words.

It's a one-time purchase, with no subscription and no bait-and-switch. And privacy is a feature: your home address is geocoded on your device and never sold.
