Ratings and reviews

4 stars, because it's not perfect, but it'll suffice, here in the Portland metro area. *quick sidenote -it should be acknowledged that all weather forecasting accuracy is being heavily impacted negatively, due to the current regimes illogical, irrational budget/staff cuts to the services that are utilized in weather predictions. That being said, take that information into consideration when reviewing any weather prediction apps.

Far too many ads. I downloaded the app to track today's severe thunderstorm risk, but there were ads every time I opened the app since all urgent notifications were video-based. Even scrolling the page slightly while the video was playing triggered a new ad. Might be nice to have some alerts be text only so we can go straight to them without the ads.

FINNALY! By far the greatest NW weather app. WAY better than the old one. I'm a golfer but I avoid rain and this is my go to tool! Everything you need is here.... I take it back... it was great until it started sending random alarming messages from a male voice even with notifications turned off. You have a new station or something to that effect really loud even if the volume on the phone was down.
