  1. 3/5Pop ups

    I love that I have access to wether at all times; however, the pop-up’s are irritating. The second the app is opened you are asked to share your location, which is fine if it would save your preferences. Then you have several ads before being able to watch any video, news story, or weather report. At times, such as during a storm when access is limited it’s aggravating because you don’t have the time to watch ads when trying to get relevant information in a short period of time to save on battery life.

  3. 5/5Love the app

    I like following day and night forecast if I miss it live. The hourly lets me know when the least chance of precipitation will be so I can plan my day. I have severe mobility issues so this is very helpful to me. You do make a difference and are very much appreciated! Thank you! With regards, Judy

  4. 5/5Such a Helpful Weather APP

    I appreciate the fact that I get a brief “heads up” notification on a daily basis. In addition, the doppler radar is a feature I mostly refer to, especially during stormy weather in our New Orleans area. I realize the APP is supported through advertising but unlike many other Weather APPs, the user is not bombarded with advertisements that tend to dominate and even delay immediate access to valuable weather information and alerts. Thank you!

  5. 1/5Garbage app. Worse one ever!!

    If you are depending on this app to keep you updated on severe weather in your area, you would do better to consult a crystal ball, or fortune teller. The forecast videos are anywhere from 8 to 18 hours behind. Sometimes all thats available is the marine forecast. Ads, Ads and more Ads. If severe weather is occurring it will give a push notification, but if you click to see the “live” forecast, you will get something 8 hours old.’ Or it will freeze up, or you might get the live news, from the day before. All In all too infuriating to deal with.
