Ratings and reviews

Kalb Wx is my go-to weather app. I love being able to access weather that is forecast by actual local meteorologists. Their radar is great! I love being able to slow it down and pause or back it up to see exactly when it will be over my location. The one complaint I have with the app is every time I go to open it, I have to wait for an ad to load before I can actually view the forecast. I wish Kalb would offer the option of getting the app as paid and ad-free.

I watch News Channel 5 and I was thrilled when I discovered that they got a weather app. I know that there have been updates over the past few months, but I liked the old design for the map features. Earlier, I could not only zoom in perfectly centered with a double-tap on the screen, but I could also slide the map until I could view the other side of the earth and view minute-by-minute weather phenomena. It even loaded faster. 😕 Could someone please bring the old map back?

Terrible. Thee app is worse than the news brodcast. It gives a notification then u open app to say 'maybe more rain thurs, more at 5/6 pm.'- Just like kalb news where they make u watch 30 mins of news(18 mins of commericals and 12 min of leftover noonday news) just to get a forecast that has been off the whole week ive had it. Accuweather, a nationwide weathercast, is more accurate than our local station. ???Theres no allergycast either, which would be nice for a localized app. Uninstalling.
