Ratings and reviews

OMG, the ads! The ads are everywhere and always playing. I can't see any news alert without at least 5 ads that are a minimum of 30 seconds long. I am screwed if I even open a notification. Nothing will play; all I get is a blank screen if I should open the app by clicking on the notification. Let's talk about the notifications. One is enough. 4 back to back of the exact same notification is absurd. 2 things the app is good for are the sevier weather alerts and looking up closings.

It's a great app when working properly. But several times over the past few months I've experienced increased issues. When I open the app, nothing works. Just stick on the temperature line It's frozen or something. Can't push anything. And I don't always get notifications like I should. I've tried clearing cache and even tried clearing data. I even Uninstalled and reinstalled several times the past few months. Can you guys help?

The app used to show storm cells and alert areas, but no longer does. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app; now there is no option for storm cells.
