I love the WMBF staff. However the weather APP is awful. They push us to use it constantly. The layout for one is too random. Not user friendly. . But the fact during turbulent weather we have to wait to watch commercials first. I think Jamie Arnold and his team are top notch. But I go to other apps/websites to find out what’s going on Myrtle Beach.

Great app, buuuuuut….

I really appreciate this app, always accurate but would appreciate it more if I didn’t have to watch a 25 second commercial every single time I open a video. This is especially frustrating when we are under severe weather or a tornado WATCH. Can you guys turn OFF the 25 second commercial or make an option to skip after 5 seconds if we are in a severe threat? Otherwise, great app!
