The idea

Less noise.
More context.

When a storm forms or a river rises, the useful question is simple: what changed where I live? Herebeat brings the official alerts, forecasts and conditions for your places into one calm view, and keeps the source and time attached to every item.

Hurricane season

Cone and track, from NOAA

The forecast cone, track and current position from NOAA’s National Hurricane Center and Central Pacific Hurricane Center, on your map. Tap a storm for its category, wind, movement and the latest advisory.

Shown: sample NHC data from 3 October 2026, labelled EXAMPLE in the app. A cone shows the likely track of the centre, not the size of the storm.

Hurricane Rachel on the Herebeat map, from sample NHC data labelled EXAMPLE (3 Oct 2026, 03:00 UTC, not current): callouts point to the forecast cone and to where it is now, and the storm card says Category 2 hurricane. Below, Rachel at 100 mph and Nolo, a Category 1 hurricane at 85 mph, both moving west.
A Flood Warning from the National Weather Service office in St Louis on the iPhone, with its source table lifted above it: issued and updated Oct 2 at 10:23 PM CDT, checked by Herebeat Oct 3 at 4:59 AM CDT, for Boone, Callaway, Cole and Moniteau counties, Missouri.

Every alert has a source

Named on every item.

Each alert shows the agency that issued it, such as the National Weather Service office for your area. Herebeat doesn’t write its own warnings.

Issued, updated, checked.

See when the agency issued and updated it, when Herebeat last checked, and one tap to the original.

Follow it until it ends.

Put a warning on your Lock Screen as a Live Activity. It updates when Herebeat refreshes.

Severe storm outlooks

Days 1 to 3, from NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center

See the outlook risk level for your place, with the chance of tornadoes, damaging wind and hail, and the outlook areas on the map. In the US.

An outlook isn’t a warning; follow NWS warnings. Shown: SPC outlook shapes from 6 May 2026, labelled EXAMPLE in the app.
