This USED TO BE a well-designed useful weather app. I could use it anywhere I went to get predictive radar for the upcoming 6 hours which was very helpful. Now, with their “upgraded” app, it’s overcrowded, broken, and pretty much a small version of their awful ad-stuffed website. WHO thought this was a great idea and approved this?!?? I sure hope that they didn’t pay for this hideous abomination of an app. PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD APP!!!!!! You totally ruined a good thing! A weather app only needs to do one thing and do it well… weather!! I would give this version negative 100 stars if I could.
