  1. 4/5Something’s changed

    What happened to the voice notifications? Not only that, but I don’t even get a written alert notification anymore for severe weather. All my notification settings are turned on. I like this app, but I miss the alerts.

  2. 5/5Accurate

    It is so good to see the accurate weather forecast that y’all put on every day. Not only is it on tv I have the app where it is available on my phone. Knowing the weather is very important for me. It is right on the money as far as accuracy. I can’t imagine life without it. THANK YOU Charles Turner. !-!

  3. 2/5Only two stars

    It’s not up-to-date most of the time and gives inaccurate information. it can be pouring the rain at our location and show that there is no rain on the radar. The temperature is always different from the forecast on the TV, or on our own temperature gauge at our house, etc.. I understand that that are variables @ different locations….

  4. 4/54 corners of our state

    I am a native of Fayette County’s that moved to Louisville 3 years ago Louisville channels cut off the Lexington weather map unnecessarily due to the hundreds of thousands of commuters that travel back & forth daily your Lexington station has better coverage of E And West weather & safety conditions THANK YOU M M Baughman Please inform your sister station to do the same

  5. 1/5Glitching App

    App is pretty much unusable 90% of time. As soon as you click on the app it will open and then glitch and go back to home screen within 5 seconds. My app is updated and actually experiences this glitch on multiple devices. I’ve reached out to WKYT Facebook page a year ago and they said they would pass it along to their IT team but the app is still doing it. I love WKYT weather and would love to be able to utilize their app,
