5/5Cedric is the best!
He is knowledgeable and personable and so thoughtful going beyond an average report. I have never heard anyone caution people to get the snow off of their cars so that the other people that are on the road can be safer from ice and snow coming from the top of another vehicle. That is a real concern that most people never consider. Thank you for consistently providing reliable weather forecasts and showing genuine concern for others.

4/5🌈 ⛅️ Yep ☀️⛈
I like the app. Great radar! Only one thing I want to mention. I can’t leave the app for any length of time - one second or one minute - without the app reloading the home screen, which always stays on the screen a frustratingly long time. I get it, you want us to see the Chattanooga Allergy Clinic ad, but come on... this is just tedious. Other than that, I’m enjoying the app and it has quickly become my go-to for weather, especially for your radar. I like having the earlier/now/later all in one place. The only other free weather app I’ve found that offers 7-hour radar is The Weather Channel. If you would just put the allergy clinic ad at the bottom of every screen instead of reloading the intro page all the time, that would be a major improvement. No one wants to wait that long for weather to load.

1/5Used to be good
I’m in the north Georgia / Chattanooga area and used to rely on Channel 3’s weather app every day. Over the last year or so it’s gone downhill to the point I just don’t trust it anymore. This morning at 9am, your app was calling for an 85% chance of rain and thunderstorms around 1pm and more storms after that. A few hours later it had flipped to only a 15% chance of rain and no thunderstorms at all, even though nothing significant changed with the actual weather. Meanwhile, the basic Weather app on my iPhone stayed consistent and has been right all day. This kind of wild swing in the forecast isn’t a one‑time thing — it’s become normal for your app. It feels like the forecast is just bouncing from one extreme to the next instead of giving a reliable picture of what’s likely to happen. For people who work outside, drive long distances, or plan family activities around storms, this is absolutely ridiculous. I’d really like to go back to trusting Channel 3 for local weather, but your app needs serious work. Please review the forecast model you’re using for our area and tighten up the accuracy and consistency, or be upfront about how often it can change so viewers aren’t caught off guard.

4/5Slightly Better than channel 9
This app is almost identical to the channel 9 app in look and function. My channel 9 app became cluttered with ads that I could not move out of the way to see the weather content hidden beneath the ad banners so I chose this one. The ads do not appear on the map box which was my biggest frustration. This app adds the most recent weather video so you can watch what David Kearns says. (In my opinion, Body language and Tone of voice add a lot of detail to the weather forecast.)

5/5This app is awesome!!!!!
I got this app thinking, this is just gonna be another weather app like any other. But what I truly figured out what is that is actually awesome! This weather app is more than just your ordinary weather app. It is an experience I can check the radar and I can check if it’s gonna rain and what the weather and the heat index. Get this app.
