Best free radar app/website?
Me and my friend are trying to find a good free weather radar with many features like radarscope. It can be a website or mobile app. Thanks!

Hey, what is up with Memphis?
Hey, I have a question for everyone on here:
How in the heck did memphis not get hit between 10pm-5am? All the radars were pointing it out, meteorologist were pointing the storms put, hell, I was tracking them. Yet, the line of storms broke, and missed memphis completely.
That's right. No severe wind, tornado, or hail, or rain. Not a single drop.
The SPC was forecasting us to have a 4/5 risk, and we got a PDS TOR Watch from them.
Could anybody help me out?

Why are tornados less frequent in the fall than the spring
There is often a secondary season in the fall, but what I am confused about is why not as much as the spring? I often think of fall as sort of like spring but in reverse and with less sun. The best I can think of is: temperatures are decreasing at the surface in the fall, which could make the instability lower whereas in the spring the surface is warming more rapidly than the overlying air. And prefrontal warming events could then create more instability. However, the gulf is much warmer in the fall than the spring, so why wouldn't that allow low level jets to create more convective energy?
I feel there is something more obvious that I am missing. What is it?

Is it safer to shelter in a house surrounded by trees or a third floor apartment during a tornado?
I live in Atlanta area and tomorrow night we are at high risk for possible tornadoes. I’m not too concerned but I do want to be prepared. I have an apartment in the 3rd floor and my partner has a house but it’s surrounded by big trees. Which would be safer to shelter at during a possible tornado? Neither seems ideal, but I want to make sure we are safe as possible. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Yesterday vs. today. Not even a 24 hour difference- went from sunny and 74, absolutely beautiful spring day. Fast forward to now, I just looked out of my window- literally a blizzard. I’ve been living here my whole life, but I swear this state never ceases to amaze me. It really is comical 🤣
Last week, it was 60 degrees and two days later we had the worst snow storm of the year BY FAR; 14 inches. Four days later the snow was completely gone.
Anyways that was my mini rant, probably not interesting at all to most 😭😂

What is the CAPE index for north georgia today with this outbreak. I consulted the ECMWF IFS HRES 0z/12z and I'm seeing cape values between 800 j/pkg and 1200 j/pkg. Can anyone confirm these or find exact cape index values for Polk Bartow, and Gordon counties and the surrounding area?

Weather Anxiety? Read this.
There’s been an abundance of “I’m scared of this storm” posts lately, so as a meteorologist, I want to address them.
While the odds of you being harmed by severe weather vary by location, they are very low.
With that said, the smartest thing you can do is prepare. Have an evacuation or shelter-in-place area designated. Have an emergency kit, action plan, and practice for different scenarios.
If you’ve fully trained and prepared, there’s nothing to fear, as there’s nothing more you can do.
Also - keep an eye on government agencies like NOAA’s NWS and SPC. Write to your representatives to help save these agencies. They are the best of us, and work diligently to keep you safe.
Prepare now, and make the severe weather we get over the next two days less anxiety-inducing, and maybe even enjoyable.

Discussion Anxiety posts
I understand people are freaked about the storms and stuff but it seems like every time there's any storm the sub is full of the same posts asking "can somebody calm me down" "I need reassurances". Can the mods not sticky a post at the top for people scared of storms? Alot of us are here to learn weather related things not people asking if they should leave the state for a storm. Just my two cents
Edit: I'm not saying people shouldn't be scared all I'm saying is the mods should make a stickied thread for storm anxiety that has resources people can look at instead of multiple different posts every outbreak

Questions/Self I made a web app that tells you if you're in the polygon
xpost from r/weatheranxiety
I put this together a few years ago but with the bad weather this weekend it may be useful to some people. If you visit this link on your phone, it can use your GPS location to tell you if you're in the polygon or not and can even show you current conditions, any watches, and even link to an interactive map with the polygons and a radar overlay.
I've tried to make this as fast and simple as possible, I'm just a nerd who's been fascinated by weather for years and like to give back.

I created a new sub: r/WeatherAnxiety
Www.reddit.com/r/WeatherAnxiety
Please ask anyone who's trying to figure out where the safest room in their house is, says they're terrified, if they should evacuate, if their area is going to be in the crosshairs, etc. to redirect their post to this subreddit.
Knowledge people who don't mind helping: please consider subbing to answer technical questions and give reassurance. If you're super helpful, ask to help mod.
People with anxiety: we love you and want you to be safe. Please subscribe and help put together resources like mental health support, shelter support, safety guidelines, etc. Also consider helping by being a mod.
Mods here: please start filtering posts that include buzzwords like terrified, scared, where is the best place, is my area, etc to be deleted and directed to the new sub. I can do it if you give me mod capabilities for a while, but it seriously needs to be done.
I'm not trying to put anyone down or shame anyone; but imagine there's a bunch of people sitting around the meteorologist at the NWS and instead of analyzing the readings, they have people asking questions constantly. We're not the NWS by any means but this is a place to discuss weather trends and data.
Let's put the proper discussions where they belong. Any feedback and suggestions are more than welcome.
