Motion too fast

I don’t like the new app because of the motion speed. I always look at the past to see which direction the rain is coming from. It’s been sped up way too fast from what it was and makes it move kind of jerky.

Recent update

I did the recent update yesterday and I’m not a big fan of it. I rely on this app everyday and the changes isn’t sitting well with me.

Good for storm tracking

But I wouldn’t trust a thing that comes form the Sinclair broadcast group. Just a cluster of reich leaning sycophants who deliver partial biased news.
