I was looking at some storms quite a ways away from me and every time i would switch apps to check NWS the radar would close and defaulr back to my local area. I wanted it to stick where i left it and could use a my location style button to bring it back to my local view when i was done

This is due to the weather data refreshing when the app is resumed (for example, switching to another app and switching back). When the data is refreshed, the radar focuses on the location. I am planning a "cached" mode where the app will not automatically refresh the weather (useful when users do not have internet) and it will not automatically move the radar. However, if the app closes, including by the OS closing the app to reclaim memory, it will lose where you were looking at. I am also not currently planning on caching all the radar data in "cached" mode, but that may change. I'll leave this open as I work on cached mode
