Location

Somehow, this app always has my location wrong. It thinks it’s where I was four days ago.

Great Emotional Support

It’s ok not perfect. Lots of warnings that never happen. Lighting 8 miles away and I will never get railed on. It’s raining now and I never got a rain notice. I get more notifications of stuff I will never see and no notification of stuff that is actually happening. I see storms building nearby that won’t show up on the radar. Maybe they aren’t dense enough. If I switch to clouds it’s just shows clouds are everywhere. The past and future never happens the same as reality. It’s always two or three steps behind. The video replay is a nice feature but sometimes isn’t updated as often as it could be. Middle of the day and Julie is still on from 7:00 am. The general forecasts and planners are ok.
