I have had this app for a couple of years now and it's very accurate. I like that it aligns with K8 weather map. Before the last update, any severe storm or possible tornado activity mirrored the TV station radar showing the polygons related to either yellow polygon for severe thunderstorm to red polygon for possible tornado. Since the update, those polygons are no longer there. Somebody dropped the ball on this feature. Why did you remove it? It was a the most important feature this app had.

wrong location and can't block dangerous follow me weather alerts. Extremely Dangerous! Tornado could kill me because there are no alerts at all for my home address. I don't live miles away at strawberry Arkansas or Smithville Arkansas or Portia Arkansas. I live 2 miles north from highway 115 beer store at Calamine. Follow me app is a death sentence!
