The power of Queen City News’s PinPoint Weather team is in the palm of your hand with the completely overhauled PinPoint Weather App. It’s never been easier to ditch the default weather app! • Get current forecasts at a glance, with fully integrated GPS to pinpoint weather conditions wherever you are. • The interactive radar map allows you to track rain and storms in real time, and lets you zoom all the way down to your exact location (within a few hundred feet!). • Daily and hourly forecasts to help you plan around the weather and reign over your day. • Video forecasts from Chief Meteorologist Tara Lane and the PinPoint Weather Team for those times when it helps to have a bit more context from trusted experts. • Stream severe weather coverage live right in the app to help you protect what matters most. • Customize your notifications to only be alerted to the advisories, watches, and warnings for your preferred location(s). • Share your weather photos and videos to help tell the full weather story (and potentially see them on Queen City News!)

Great app but the map is infuriating

The app is fast and smooth. But when you go to the map screen, it automatically overlays the alerts over the radar on the map, and you can’t see the precipitation radar image. So you have to go into the alerts tab and turn them all off every time I want to see the radar. Wish there was a toggle for alerts on/off to make that quicker/cleaner.

New look - not a fan

Not only is there a new look, all of my settings are gone. I track weather in several areas due to travel. All of those locations have disappeared and now I have to add them back 😏The new app is not my favorite. I may go back to weather channel.

I did an update and the new version is terrible! Radar doesn’t work and overlays pop up all over the map! Please, please go back to the old version…
