Weather forecasting is sub par and the witty banter is annoying
2024 has not been good to these guys. They called late Feb as the last chance for 40’s - which proved wrong half a dozen times afterwards. Then they said the MS 150 weather would be mild and not windy. Then I have to sift thru their banter and opining on how terrible Houston weather is to get to an actual forecast. Guys, you are not Jimmy Fallon or James Colbert. Stick to just the weather and I’ll pay attention again.
United StatesMy favorite weather app but…
I love using this app and I love the reports done on the weather. Unfortunately, no matter how many times I update the app or my phone, the app shuts down as soon as I tap the most recent story. Just have to stick to the webpage
United StatesGreat product, mixed utility
Great predictions, but their weekly weather forecast usually shows the past week instead of the forecast. If I wanted a bad app, I would have kept using Weather Underground.
United StatesToo many glitches
The app consistently has glitches pop up with the current one freezing (no pun intended) the temperature on December 27. I uninstalled and reinstalled after it was stuck on December 13 so it’s apparently a wider issue. The one thing it is good for, Matt’s predictions and summaries, is up to date but those can be easily found on his website. I hope the glitches are fixed soon!
United StatesHome page glitch
Front home page is stuck on weather on Aug 4
United StatesGhost of Summer Past
I had to delete the app and reinstall to get rid of the forecast still showing highs of 104° and 105° in late October, but the articles are the main value.

App keeps crashing for me for whatever reason …..
