2/5Wrong lightning warnings constantly
I use this app often but I am always getting alerts for lighting within my current location when the sky’s are clear for 100 miles. It’s just been this year. I’ve tried to check my settings but it’s annoying to always have to wonder if a storm is popping up and there is absolutely nothing.

5/5Works Great
Most of the reviews on here are from 1 or 2 years ago, so I thought I’d give an updated review. The graphics are great: whether that describes the background photos, the interface of the 24- hour/ 7- day forecast, or the interactive radar. In particular, I like how one can select multiple different cities/ towns in the radar and then scroll through them in the 24- hour forecast section if they want to keep a watch over multiple areas. However, one thing that should be fixed is the format of the advisories/ warnings of the National Weather Service- they should be made a little neater. This app has had a lot of well needed updates over the past year.

1/5Not the great weather App they brag about
Pop up ads are annoying - weather forecasts are constantly changing (sometimes several times within the same day) and very rarely match their TV forecast for the same area and are typically not very accurate. Radar doesn't work a good portion of the time. Definitely not the "awesome" weather app that KELO weather people would like you to think it is. Just a heads up KELO weather team - changing your forecast to match what the weather is actually doing outside once the day comes isn’t actually forecasting anything. 0% chance of rain on both App and TV - 1-3 days out and then the day comes and low and behold it’s raining so magically the app forecast changes to 60% that morning.

1/5Junk
Let put ads first so we can have safety last. Anyone needing to know the weather right now, well just spend $5 on a paid app, pick any $5 app it’ll be better than this. Even Apples own free app tells me vital information (warnings) about 2 minutes before this app does. Not to mention that they made this a pain to use, hit play on the radar then move the map it stops then you have to hit play again and if you want to move the map you have to keep playing this game, and that’s after waiting for the lower ads banner to load since that’s the most important thing to show everyone.

1/5Need to wait through adds to see if storms are coming??
Used to love this app. I had multiple locations set up so that my home, work, and favorite campgrounds to make sure we stayed safe. Suddenly, there are adds?!?! So now I get a notification of storm watches/warnings and open the app for more details. But I have to wait through adds to see if we are in imminent danger?!?!? Shouldn’t this app be for preparing people for severe weather potential—sometimes minutes, even seconds count when there are storms coming. Adds are definitely taking this app out of the mix when it comes to safety.
