The NBC Bay Area app has a brand-new weather section with customizable features, upgraded radar settings, improved location experience and our WeatheRate certified most accurate forecast.
We redesigned the app to allow you to modify the weather experience based on your local weather needs, preferences and location. You can now rearrange weather modules in the app to prioritize the information that’s most important to you.
The radar settings in the app also got an upgrade, giving you more control over the radar’s layers and overlays. We also added descriptions to each feature so you can easily tailor the radar experience to your needs.
You can always find up-to-date Microclimate Weather forecasts from the certified most accurate weather team in the Bay Area, led by Chief Meteorologist Jeff Ranieri, with Rob Mayeda, Kari Hall, Vianey Arana, and Cinthia Pimentel.
The feedback from our app users and from our meteorologists was a central part of this redesign, resulting in a more intuitive and modern weather platform.
Here’s a full list of all the weather upgrades in the NBC Bay Area app:
- Dynamic Layout: It lets you customize your weather home screen by rearranging weather modules based on your preferences, ensuring a personalized experience that caters to your individual needs and interests.
- Improved Location Experience: Our upgraded location hub makes it easy to add new locations and to set up weather alerts. It also highlights recent locations for effortless navigation.
- Revised Radar Settings: We streamlined and reorganized radar layers and overlays, giving you more control over your radar experience. Plus, we added descriptions of each, making it easier to understand and customize your radar view to suit your needs.

- Improved Legibility: You will find clear, larger fonts and easy-to-understand icons, making it a breeze to read and navigate.
