Although Aviation NEXRAD RADAR HD uses official NWS server sites, users are reminded that official weather observations, forecasts, warnings and watches should be received directly from the NWS. Accurate interpretation of radar images can be very difficult and requires the expertise of a trained meteorologist. This app should never be used for flight planning
