Inconsistent radar

After a summer 2026 update to the WFTV radar network that was supposed to significantly improve radar coverage, the app radar is now SIGNIFICANTLY delayed, like 10-15 minutes off. It is no longer reliable and neither is WFTV after all the on-air talent changes the past few years, we have simply stopped watching at 40+ years.

Inconsistent

I will check the forecast early am. One or two hours later the forecast has changed dramatically. Example this morning was predicted 10% rain at 6:30. About 8am rain chance went up to 80%. It never did rain at my location though

Radar sweeps often broken

Can’t see 6 hour sweep anymore. Reinstalling won’t fix.
