Uhh wtf? I use NOAA to get my weather, no ads, no bs.

Wished american services and government functions are course(s) taught in middle and high school. It's a huge shame that almost no knows how the government works in detail, including me, as I have to learn as I go.

Dude, there is a regularly updated gif of recent radar activity specific to your area. You can just bookmark the gif.

Fuck dredging through whatever ad filled apps or websites..
I bookmark forecast.weather.gov with my location, which has that gif and other figures available on the page.
A lot of the "private sector" weather services just scrape NOAA or other public-sector data and apply some branding to it.
