I thought in the past I was able to just select weather alerts. Now, I get weather AND news alerts. I went into the alert settings, and only the weather alert was selected. So, I'm not sure what the problem is or if there is one. Anyway, I really like KMBC weather and the weather alerts, but I will uninstall the app because I don't want ANY news alerts. Please just make an app for your weather forecasts ONLY.

I prefer live broadcast any day over this app. Apparently not enough time is spent updating articles/ads etc as I see same that it's been there for 3 to 4 years now. after scrolling down and reviewing what's there I immediately shut the app and go to another source. come on channel 9 you can do better!

KMBC was always the best local statiin for breaking news and unbiased reporting, sadly they have fallen into the pits of being a biased talkshow and their "breaking news" updates through the app are anywhere from a day to week behind. Take the "news" out and it's a great weather app
