### 5/5 — Cool

*2025-08-26, version 5.17.706*

Cool

### 1/5 — Too much advertising

*2024-03-30, version 5.12.701*

This app is a joke. You can’t even read the forecast before ads start playing.  Don’t waste your time.

### 5/5 — Easy to maneuver & informative

*2024-03-21, version 5.12.701*

Excellent weather app for the South Central region of NYS. CBS/WBNG12 is awesome & their weather app is too. Howard Manges is one of the best Meteorologists I’ve ever seen. Thank you for keeping this weather app up to date with the current & upcoming forecast day after day, night after night. Just plain awesome & helpful! Check it out if you live near Binghamton, NY 🌬️❄️⛈️🌞🌌

### 4/5 — Second review lol

*2023-07-07, version 5.10.500*

So this app is not bad for a free app has its flaws but overall 4 stars for the app when it works  and the notifications go off after the storm or thunderstorms hits lol

### 1/5 — Never accurate

*2023-07-03*

Google actually gives you the correct weather

### 4/5 — Review from Stamford, NY

*2023-03-23, version 5.8.400*

I like the weather report you give but the same advertisement from UHS at the beginning of every forecast is beyond annoying. We’re so bombarded with advertising everywhere we turn it’s driving me crazy. Can’t you make it so we can skip the ad since we’ve already heard it a hundred+ times? I’ve already chosen my healthcare provider for the year as I’m sure most others have so this ad is total waste of time.

### 2/5 — Hyperbolic

*2023-03-22, version 5.8.400*

I hate these pop-ups I get on the iPad like, “unsettled weather coming” and then when I click and go to the recorded weather report it will be something like, “There will be a cloud in the sky.”  I think they need to spend equal time explaining how a forecast of 8 to 16 inches suddenly becomes two inches one day, that immediately melts, and another two inches the next day.

### 5/5 — Weather

*2023-03-17, version 5.7.301*

You all are doing a great job

### 5/5 — Storm tracker, alerts, and weather

*2023-01-26, version 5.7.301*

Hello, I live proximately 100 miles from Binghamton south, I always watch the Binghamton channel when I lived in Livingston Manor, New York. I am now in Liberty New York and unfortunately I don’t get to Binghamton Station. So I really enjoy watching the news and things like that on the app thank you were having it. Have a great day.!!☺️

### 1/5 — Why

*2022-12-15, version 5.7.112*

Why need an app when you can compare the daily weather to the weather channel.
