The storm finder can be used to pull up a list of storms in a given radius as far back as Feb. 2019
-
To use Storm Finder, zoom in to the area where you wish to see a storm history
- The center of your screen will be used as the waypoint
- Select the Weather Icon, then click the lightning bolt symbol
- Now that Storm Finder is active, use the filters drop down to adjust the storm events that you are viewing
