Description

CASA Alerts delivers cutting-edge, hyper-local weather information about thunderstorms, tornados, hail, high winds and floods in the greater Dallas Fort Worth area to your mobile phone. As severe weather occurs, you’ll receive customized alerts based on your preferences. We’ll also send you periodic surveys to get your feedback on the alerts, the weather you are experiencing, and your general attitudes towards severe weather. The surveys don’t require much extra effort on your part and will be used for research on improving the way weather information is delivered to people like you.

CASA Alerts was developed by the CASA Engineering Research Center (http://www.casa.umass.edu/main/research/urbantestbed/research/), led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst, to improve user-centric, context-aware severe weather warnings using CASA’s City Warn™ platform. This app is part of the CASA WX project that has brought innovative, high-resolution radar technology to the region. CASA WX is a collaboration among several north Texas cities and towns, the North Central Texas Council of Governments, University of Massachusetts Amherst and Colorado State University.

Note: This app is designed to be a “tap on the shoulder” to keep you aware of risky weather near you and your loved ones. The app identifies areas of risk and sends notifications based on your alerting preferences and important locations. The app does not display the full suite of CASA radar products, and therefore might not be suited for those seeking CASA radar data for detailed analysis.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

This app has been developed with the support of the National Science Foundation Hazards SEES grant award (#1331572). Academic participants include University of Massachusetts, Colorado State University and the University of Delaware.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

2 ★Not sure the purpose. Tonight, we had 2 waves of severe thunderstorms roll through with confirmed tornadoes. One tornado was under 20 miles away, so that should have triggered an alert - but didn't. We had sirens, twice Neither did the two severe storms and hail cores that went over us. Plus, the radar only showed rain to the South in the "now" setting. In the "5 min from now" it showed the full storm, though. So, I'm uninstalling it.
3 ★Just installed. I don't keep location services on due to battery drain. Keeps insisting over and over to turn on location, even though I entered custom locations for home and work. Would love the ability to turn off the request for current location and only use my custom locations. Will update review after next severe weather event. Keeping 3 stars for now as a place holder.
3 ★It is good but it does not show radar for North of Dallas where my home is and I would like to be able to see that.
2 ★No alerts, nothing. Raining hard in 76244, and the app has been silent.
5 ★Nice app
5 ★Nice warning app for DFW area
