Users generally praise the KRTV STORMTracker Weather App for its accuracy, reliability, and usability, especially for local and international weather info. However, some express concerns about occasional lag in updates, temperature discrepancies due to measurement locations, and missing 'real feel' temperature data. Recent technical problems with app updates and intrusive ads have also been reported. Overall, the app is valued for its trusted and comprehensive weather coverage but needs improvements in update timeliness and user experience regarding ads and app stability.

Cons

Some users report the app lagging behind other sources on weather event updates and not fully dependable for schedule planning.
Temperature readings can differ from users' actual locations, possibly due to measurement points being distant or at different elevations.
Lack of information on 'real feel' temperatures for hourly forecasts; only current temperature is shown.
