User Reviews

Users praise the app for easy use, accurate local forecasts (WLEX), and reliable storm tracking. However, many reviews focus on ad-related issues: intrusive, video-heavy ads disrupting navigation, hard-to-close pop-ups overlaying radar/forecasts, and ads causing delays in loading and content. These concerns are paired with occasional radar/update delays, reducing usefulness during severe weather. Despite loyalty to WLEX’s accuracy, the ad experience and data delays push some users toward ad-free or alternative weather apps.

Pros

Easy-to-use interface.
Accurate local forecasts (notably WLEX).
Longstanding, trusted weather source in the area.
Helpful during storms and can reduce anxiety.
Solid storm-tracking features.

Cons

Intrusive, video-heavy ads disrupt navigation.
Ads overlay radar/forecast content and are hard to close.
Radar/live data updates can be delayed or unreliable.
Startup and navigation can be slow due to ads.
Some users consider ad-free or alternative apps due to the ad experience.

Recent reviews

Sick of the ads, the other day I got a tornado warning and got on the app to see what was going on and had to watch a very long ad, I finally decided to delete!

I’ve used this app for many years and it has always been fantastic. Clean and reliable. You can’t physically use the app anymore due to full screen ads popping up every 5 seconds. I understand one add here and there but come on. Open the app get an ad. Go to map get an ad. Go to hourly get an ad. 100% unusable in this state.
