  1. 5/5Weather Forecast

    I REALLY appreciate being kept up to date on what to expect in my area instead of having storms come & im not prepared. I truly enjoy your weather alert system too b/c last time it came I only had moments to climb into my closet & I HEARD the roar on the other side of the wall opposite my closet! When the tornado doubled back I was able to get to my basement in time . God protected each time & the trees that fell were in the woods next to my yards. And I didn’t panic knowing what was going on. Thank U ALL! I live in Boomer, NC

  2. 2/5Alert overkill

    The app is simple to use but there are some major irritating issues. If you can look past all the ad placements it is marginally usable. If you can get past how it slows the app down while your forced to waiting for whatever local businesses ad to load. But his biggest issue is the overwhelming amount of alerts you get from this app. Alerts are supposed to be for major things threatening things dangerous things. But not this app you get alerts when it’s sunny, you get alert every time someone changes a video, you get an alert about an alert. It’s horrible to the point that you just turn the alerts off which defeats the whole point of a weather alert app. If you need an app to try to trick people to watch you content and increase your viewership then you’re not doing something right in terms of your content production. Make the app useful for weather emergency alerts only

  3. 3/5Radar is wildly inaccurate

    I’ve use this app for years and like the weather videos they post, as well as the functionality of the app. However, in recent times the radar is just wildly inaccurate. Completely different from other radar systems and just shockingly wrong. As an example, right now the NBC12 app is showing a huge storm cell over our head, yet outside, looking up, not a cloud in the sky, other radar systems are showing nothing in the vicinity within 100 miles. I just can’t rely on this app for radar as I need an accurate system for boating and other outdoor pursuits.

  4. 5/5This is my 1st stop of the day!

    The weather decides so much each day. I depend on Andrew, Meagan & Jim to keep me in the know! Everything from what to wear to if I should mow my lawn today or tomorrow. They’re reliable, professional but relatable. I always appreciate Andrew throwing in a tidbit about how the days weather will affect your plants, animals, work, or recess or bus stop conditions for the kids. Thanks to all of you at channel 12 for helping me plan each day!! 😊☀️☔️☃️🍁

  5. 1/5Horrible new traffic update

    I grew up in Richmond and love this app for its weather alerts and traffic map. However, after years and years of use I’m having to move on to another app. The new traffic update from a month ago only allows for you to view a small area around Richmond, not simply anywhere you. I use this when I travel all up and down the East coast. The actual traffic conditions and hazards don’t load, and even if it did it wouldn’t allow me to look beyond central Virginia anyway. That makes things tough for those of us who commute to NoVa. I hope this gets fixed but if not I’m using something else.
