Ratings and reviews

This upgrade doesn't show the same kind of data the previous version. Example: (1) I only get a few hours' worth of today's hours of future hours, like at least up to midnight. (2) I enjoyed tapping on a future day (in a week) and got a white box with a recap of that day's weather stats. I may come up with other irritations, the more I play with it.

It's ok but doesn't update the temp in the notification drop-down until I click on the app, then it will update. It's a little pointless to do this every time. I had a different local station app that was always up-to-date. I may switch back. The alerts are a nice feature in this app.

I used to love this app but with the latest update the push alerts have become obnoxious and embarrassing with no way to turn them off that works. I have uninstalled this app ☹ UPDATE: they seem to have taken care of the problem with they push alerts. You can turn them off and they now stay off. I've reinstalled the app. Knock on wood, I'm a happy camper again
