Ratings and Reviews
Needs to be able to plan for weekend trips
It’s good and all but I only have one beef of a feature that’s truncated. In the past versions it used to have a hourly forecast for 72 hours. Now it only go’s out to 48 hours.
The 72 hour forecast is useful for planning weekend trips. Say Memorial day weekend is coming up. Or any other three day weekend. You leave early on Friday morning but you really don’t have a good handle on the storms due for Sunday afternoon. Do you leave early enough Sunday morning to miss most of the storms or can you get by by leaving Sunday afternoon? With only a 48 hour window you can never really know.
Not your average meteorologist!
Most of the weather folks have a tendency to overemphasize the possibility of bad weather like selling a used car! The facts and the warnings are good, necessery, and appreciated, but Derek is honest enough to tell us when he thinks the weather will not actually be that bad, and has been correct 100% of the time. Very comforting! My only source for the weather forecast.
I hope you can sit through ads while checking for threatening weather
When weather coverage was moved from the main news app to this app, everything is delivered in video format. No longer do we have written editorials warning of incoming or current weather that may be threatening us. You must sit through 1-2 30sec ads to watch their video to find out if you're in danger. Unfortunately during heavy storms, data is often sluggish to your cell phone.
I would be fine with them having as many side/top/bottom ads as they'd like-- but let me receive a weather warning without ads or poor cell connection gatekeeping the news.
