Ratings and reviews

Now theres a weather alert but wont let me see the alert details! No warning in advanced like the other one gives. Editing to ad that I was prompted to leave a review then it didnt let me go back to the app. So annoying, negative one star. Usually consistent. Much better than any other weather app I've tried and doesnt spam me. Widgets are nice but when its stormy it takes off the next few days to replace it with the radar thing. I dont know what that little graph means.

This app WAS great. Recently, it has become flooded with full screen, misleading ads, such as ads designed to look like severe weather notifications that trick you into clicking. These malicious, possibly dangerous full screen ads pop up over everything. Check radar. Ad. Go back to the daily. Ad. Hourly. Ad. Also, the station weather alerts are multiple times per day for no reason. "A new station alert" to tell me it's sunny outside. This has all made the app unusable, which is a shame.

My understanding when I downloaded this app was that it was for weather alerts during bad weather such as tornadoes, snow storms etc. But it seems that recently it's constantly sending alerts for Sunny day, beautiful evening. It's really annoying, to the point that I now just ignore it so I guess that means I have no use for it and it's time to delete.
