The **1st Gen. iPad latest update was iOS 5.1**. (source. [iPad (1st generation) - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPad_(1st_generation))

and the Tempest iOS App compatibility is; Compatibility  
**Requires iOS 9.0** or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. (source. [‎Tempest Weather on the App&nbsp;Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tempest-smart-weather/id1125427067))

So, the short answer is NO.

Thanks…

Looks like the 2nd generation ipad does 9.3.5… so that would be the minimum ipad.
