@spalexander68 Make sure not to over customize in the advanced options as others have done. Go with the basics first such as weather severity (moderate, severe and/or extreme). Don’t worry about certainty, weather alert type or urgency. I am finding that all the granular options are making my app not as useful as people are selecting everything and causing the weather api to return a null/zero result set.
Thanks for the heads up. I have Severe and Extreme selected as severity, and tornado warning as specific weather event. I removed the options for certainty. However, for urgency, it requires me to enter an option. Should I select Immediate, Expected, or Future, or do I need to select them all?
The easiest way to ensure your NOAA app is working correctly is to uninstall and reinstall with below version. The app became complex very quickly and this version simplified the app for 90% of the users while allowing those who do want advanced configuration options to do so.
2.1.7 - moved options around into appropriate categories to support simple installation, added warning and URL to weather.gov for advanced configuration testing, removed required fields for simple install of NOAA
It doesn't, the previous alert stays present as the dashboard tile, until a new alert is issued. The screenshot alert expired 10 hours ago, but is still present as the dashboard tile.
Ya I think there were around 9 of them, one I watched go directly over my house then touched down about 10 miles away.....used to it by now, I don't even where a helmet anymore....
I posted this in another thread but I was asked to post it here also.
From previous post:
"We just received a severe thunderstorm warning here so that worked great...Thank you!
I have the poll frequency set to 5 minutes and the repeat alerts set to 3 minutes. We got one alert but no repeats. A setting?"
Aaron has advised that this is fixed in version 2.2.0 of the App.
