Weather app

Generally pretty good, but with one major complaint. When I go to check the weather in the morning (when, I suspect, most people check it), you have nothing but old reports from the previous day. I know you’ve done morning reports for the 3 tv stations, but they don’t populate the app until later in the day, significantly reducing the utility of the app.

current weather conditions not easy to get

application doesn’t have uniform logic and appearance and no apparent structure or form or function or layout or anything

Great source of information

On point easy to understand and presented by real people.

Very informative

Very helpful during the storm with message updates that really helped prepare for what was coming. I appreciate it, thank you!

Wish it worked better!

Content is outstanding, but the app is constantly freezing or the sound doesn’t work, or it’s connecting to Kindle for some weird reason and preventing me from even opening the app. I find myself restarting it often and being bombarded by adds before I can even get back to any content on the 2nd or 3rd try. Super frustrating and clunky. It took me three times to see the storm prediction I’m worried about. After searching the web Hawaii News Now was the only site that stated the name of the potential hurricane. Good info! Just so hard to use!

Weather app

Accurate weather report

No ad free option

Get rid of ads or at least give me the option to upgrade to add free

Too many ads!!!!

Forecasts contradict themselves

OK. First there are a bazillion ads, but more importantly the forecasts are not consistent. Here is an example.
Today the chance of rain is listed as 20%. BUT if you expand the forecast it tells you that there is a 50% chance of rain in the morning and a 60% chance in the evening.
Now I’m not a mathematical genius but I know that 50% and 60% do NOT come out to 20% for the day.
So the question is: Which forecast do I believe? Right now, neither one!
1 star because I can’t rate it any lower.

Rarely updated

What good is a weather forecast that is 48 hours old?

App is one big ad

This use to be a decent app. Now my screen is filled with ads. The opening screen was about 70% filled with ads. This app is no longer of much use with all this extra on it. I go to it for weather, not so you or google can send me ads.

Inaccurate and filled with ads

Frustrating app to use. It will say there is a 50% chance of rain on a given day, but when you expand the hours for that day it may only show 10% chance all day long. At least make it agree with your own forecasts!
It is irritating that it reloads every time you have to jump to another app and is full of irritating ads.

You want some weather?

Great app availability!!

Thx for having weather reporting at one’s fingertips!
Especially for us seniors.
So far, you seem to be accurate, not downplaying the bad weather
Reality!!
Will continue to rely on this needy information!!

Should be more up to date with what Low pressure and high pressure have to do with wind and rain also Hurricane Gilma is where?? How will it effect us

Questionable data!

Me and my wife downloaded the app to our respective smartphones, and even though we shared the same settings, location and network the app gives us different data ( precipitation percentages, forecasts, wind velocity, etc). To make things more unreliable, I downloaded to my iPad and it gave a third readout, totally different data from our smartphones. I would not rely on this data for any planning.

We use to like it. Not now.

The old app version was so much better! We liked the old radar. We don’t like it since you changed the live radar. Can see anything! Who ever did the updated version ruined it.
