I have has this app for over 8 years. Accuracy of the weather radar has not been as good as it used to be in the past. I used to be able to tell when exactly the rain was going to start at my location...and it was usually right. Now, it can show my location squarely in the middle of a green rain cloud, but no rain is actually coming down and vice versa. I like that it will announce if there is heavy rain or lightening detected near my location (when it works; again, accuracy is spotty).

when the app sends you a notification to click on for more info from wbtv weather and you click it and all you see is clouds!!! nothing. This app has been doing this for over a year, there is no where on the app to report that ghe app isn't working correctly, you cannot contact anyone about the app, this is why it has been so long and it still doesn't work right, I will be deleting it, because if you can't even have a app that works right, I don't trust you to tell me about weather alerts

Radar, and the options to use on it are good. The forecast is good. Updates are meh, at best Severe weather warnings are the problem! If they issue a tornado warning or any other major event, you better hope you hear the warning tone and go into the app immediately! If you miss the alert, then go to the app and play the short video of the warning issued. You have anywhere from 30 seconds to a full minute of sponsor ads to watch first!! You may land in Kansas before the vid plays!
