User Reviews

Tempest Weather’s iOS app is praised for easy setup, accurate hyperlocal data, solid smart‑home integrations, and useful alerts with responsive support. However, multiple reviews cite stability/refresh problems, inconsistent rain data, and missing data views in the app. A few users also note limited/public-view features. Overall, the hardware and data quality are strong, but the app needs reliability and UX improvements to match the hardware.
Pros
  • Easy setup and reliable installation.
  • Accurate, consistent hyperlocal data.
  • Strong smart‑home integrations (Home Assistant, Alexa, Rachio, Weather Underground).
  • Helpful lightning and rain alerts.
  • Responsive customer support, including quick hardware replacements.
Cons
  • App stability and data refresh issues (frequent freezes and updates breaking functionality).
  • Inaccurate or inconsistent rain data (rain totals off or missing events).
  • Missing or hard‑to‑find data/metrics in the app (rain totals, last lightning strike, solar brightness).

I have over 50 devices on my home network that connected to my WiFi the first time but not the Tempest Weather Station. I have extenders in several locations so signal strength is not an issue. I followed all their troubleshooting recommendations with no luck. So at this point I will be returning it.

Still can’t believe there is no Apple HomeKit integration. Ifttt is $$$ now. Also, the forecasts are never correct. It’s going to rain in 30 min. Nope now it’ll rain in 45 min. Nope… I give up on this app and hardware.

This app makes up fake data when the sensor fails. Also The tempest hardware is junk, breaks down after a couple of years.
