phenomenal!

Exceeded my expectations. As a fellow paddler this really helped. Other apps don't do as much as this one.

Great app!

This is by far the most user friendly app I’ve used for finding out the weather on the lake! Not only is it accurate but it is very easy to understand. I would give it more stars if I could!
