Good app!

I’ve been using this app now for a couple of months. So far the app hasn’t crashed on me and it has worked well. This app helps me understand what the heat index is going to be. I need that information to help employees stay safe.

Upgrading my 2-star review to 4 stars because the latest version fixed a crash problem and also the place search. It now works well to indicate heat risk where you are or elsewhere in the US (only). Upgrade to ad-free was worth it for me.

For some cold locations in Alaska, the National Weather Service doesn't regularly publish wet bulb temperatures, and we've updated the app to properly handle those locations. Thank you for your feedback.

Very useful for summer

Revised review: the app is really useful and easy. There was an outage for a day or two with the weather service but that has been remedied and is working now. Developer was very responsive.

The temporary outage was due to a service interruption at NOAA and it has since been resolved. Thank you for the feedback.

Worked GREAT until a couple days ago?

This has been my go-to app for heat index/wet bulb temps — straight-forward, simple graphics, etc. But all of a sudden it “attempts” to retrieve the info but fails to provide it. I’ve done nothing different, it — just — stopped — working.Major bummer.

There have been some problems with the system over at NOAA that will take some time to resolve. Thanks for your patience.
