### 5/5 — Excellent Source

*2026-02-22, version 3.22*

Accurate and  dependable in depth source of  pinpoint Winter Storm timing, movement and impact.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-01-26, version 3.22*

I use this app during 2013 blizzard and it didn’t fail me. It’s a good app.app then I always go to it if I want us to know radar

### 5/5 — Great App For Powder Chasing

*2026-01-24*

I’ve used this app every year to help guide short weekend snowboarding getaways and find areas with the highest probability of powder. It’s been amazing and I should have written this review years ago. There’s improvements to be had (like updating more frequently) but I haven’t seen any other app display snowfall probabilities as accurate and digestible as this one. Take all my stars.

### 1/5 — Pfff

*2026-01-21, version 3.22*

1

### 4/5 — Must Have for Northerners!

*2025-10-31*

When I lived in Minneapolis, I absolutely loved this app.  It is a must have if you travel daily. Now I live in North Dakota and it’s fairly accurate, but I wish it was updated in the middle of the night instead of during the morning commute. It always seems to be updating when I need the information so it is not as accurate.

### 5/5 — Love.

*2025-03-05, version 3.18*

I love this app. I tell everyone about it. Thank you for keeping it free. That makes me want to pay for it. In fact……. Next coffee is on me.

### 5/5 — Issues resolved

*2025-01-15, version 3.16*

I notified the developer of minor issues, and the app is working for me again. Thank you!

### 3/5 — USA?

*2025-01-08*

When I opened the app and picked my location, it told me it couldn’t tell me the weather and that the location had to be in the United States. Could you please change that? Otherwise the app looked informative and accurate.

### 1/5 — Just wrong

*2024-12-20, version 3.15*

Won’t even met you have an hourly report with out trying-to get in your pocket book

### 1/5 — Not as advertised

*2024-11-29, version 3.11*

All things shown under free you don’t get without $.  Be honest so I won’t waste my time.
