Was better

I use this app a lot. Since the last couple of updates, it has become less useful. They have moved the current temp half way down the main page, so you have to scroll just to see the temp. This is quite annoying when you just want to quickly check the current conditions. I have started using a nation wide app. They have the current conditions at the top of the page, where they should be.
Please do better and put current conditions back at the top where it belongs.
The other issue is that the live radar is good, but 5 to 10 minutes behind the actual weather, even though it shows the current time.
Not cool if you are out in a convertible and think you have time to make it home, but get rained on when the radar shows that it’s 10 minutes away. I’ve come to live with this, now that I have figured this out.

Bank info ?

Why does a weather app need my banking information,and after providing the info , still cant use the app . I’ve used this app for years . I am officially done .

Temps off 50 degrees

It is 80 degrees outside, app says 20 degrees

New updates have bugs

The new update has a couple serious bugs. The first being that the thunderstorm warnings don’t overlay properly. Consistently, with the correct settings in place it will not show the proper red warning box where there is a tornado warning. All the warning boxes show as just the watch box colors and/or the orange sever thunderstorm warning box. I can go into another news station’s weather app with the same settings and see the red tornado warning box.

The second issue is when I click to watch a video, two ads will be playing at the same time as if I somehow opened two videos to play at the same time. I have to click the back arrow in the video to exit out of the ad in the front to get to the ad in the back to then watch the video.

Lastly, can we normalize suspending ads during serious weather events so that when I click to watch live I’m not having to sit through an ad when seconds can actually matter?

Ads break the app

The ads that play prior to the video feeds bleed into the meteorologist speaking creating an echo and keeping the user from understanding the content. Major issue and moved to Acuweather to avoid this annoying situation.
