I know someone advocating for a similar app from the doppler radar sites, in which, once an observational 'threshold' for tornadic activity is exceeded, a 'heads-up' is immediately sent.
They don't want a, ' The sky is falling' freak-out every time a cloud burps, but all the lead time in advance of a supercell would be welcome.
