What's New in WKRC WX

Bug fixes and performance improvements

User reviews

New map on app

Your new interactive map on the updated app is awful! It moves way too fast, and is hard to track storms. I also don’t like how you can’t have storm alerts on the map while tracking a storm. Go back to the old map.

App update 6.2.512

The app will not update. Keeps saying to update iPhone 15 iOS 26.4

Best Weather Group

I love getting notifications about what is going on from John Gumm, Anne Compolongo, Eric Debroka and Paul Pottet.

Recent Update

I love this app and have used it for years. Every update they do somehow makes the app a little bit worse each time. This update however is the WORST one they have ever done EASILY! Having to make a “custom” map to display weather alerts and the radar itself is stupid enough already but making the radar go on top of the weather alerts makes this app very frustrating to use. If you look at the map for something like a tornado warning, the radar goes on top of the warning polygon and you have to use the time bar to move the radar off of the warning to see it. Why make this change? The app was good before, and before the initial redesign it was better! Please fix this app, I WILL change my review when you do!
