The Baron Critical Weather app is a daily weather resource for your smart phone, providing forecasts and current conditions that include radar, temperature, and surface winds on a fast and fluid map. An easy-to-use interface includes a 24-hour and 7-day forecast, so you can see what the weather will be like at times and locations important to you.

Features:
• Current and forecast conditions based on city, zip code or your current location
• Nationwide radar, VIS/IR satellite imagery, temperature and more
• Interactive weather map with pan and zoom
• 3 and 7-day forecasts in both quick view and detailed formats
• National Weather Service county and storm-based warnings on the map
• Integrated weather alerts with Baron Tornado Index (BTI) rankings

Built-in Weather Alerts
 Baron Critical Weather provides fully automated weather alerts right on your phone, simple to use and more specific than weather sirens, with a lead time of up to 15 minutes before the storm hits. You can set up to four places to be monitored for severe weather, including your smart phone’s current location, so you always know what’s coming.
Choose to receive any or all of these alert types:

• Special Baron alerts
o Storms Entering Your Area
o Dangerous Storm Approaching
o Twisting Storm Approaching
• National Weather Service storm-based warnings:
o Tornadoes
o Severe Thunderstorms
o Flash Floods

Featuring the Baron Tornado Index
The Baron-exclusive alerts are accompanied by a simple 1-to-10 ranking on the likelihood of a tornado within the approaching storm cell. Called the Baron Tornado Index (BTI), this ranking is more local and accurate than regional alerts.
