Where Does Tempest Store Station Data?
Where the Tempest app keeps station data and forecasts on Android and iPhone, and what the cloud holds.
Last updated
Tempest uploads from the yard over hub WiFi. Your account holds stations, readings, and forecasts. The phone renders graphs and alerts.
Same login means same stations. Exact cache names vary by Tempest versus WeatherFlow generations. Keep the hub online during moves so recent hours upload. Gaps from power outages are hardware gaps. No phone restore can fill minutes the station never sent, though it backfills on reconnect within limits. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
Where Tempest Weather stores this, by platform
/sdcard/Android/data/com.weatherflow.tempest
Readings follow your Tempest account. Phone holds login and chart cache. Hub uploads from hardware. Match the email exactly.
On My iPhone/Tempest
Weather lives in the Tempest container plus cloud. Sign in to restore stations. Phone reinstall never touches hub or cloud lifetime history.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Tempest data to a new phone?
Stations, history, and forecasts follow your Tempest account. Sign in on the new phone with the same login. The hub uploads from the yard hardware. Verify the station name before wiping, since a second account shows empty.
How far back does Tempest history go?
Yes, in Tempest cloud for the station lifetime. The phone holds login and chart cache. Trends rebuild after sign in. Export CSVs from the web for archiving, since the phone never holds the master copy.
