User Reviews

The app excels with local-focused, timely updates, credible meteorologists, strong radar, and multi-location monitoring. However, radar loading/accuracy issues and inconsistent forecasts can reduce reliability, and update-induced performance problems (video playback and notifications) are recurring concerns.
Pros
  • Localized weather updates focused on North Mankato and nearby areas (not the Twin Cities).
  • Timely, regular updates for the local area from trusted meteorologists.
  • Strong radar, well-organized maps, and an easy-to-use interface.
  • Video weather updates from experienced local meteorologists (e.g., Mark Tarello).
  • Multi-location support for monitoring several sites easily.
Cons
  • Radar data sometimes fails to load rain/storms or is not fully reliable (frequently shows warnings instead of precipitation).
  • Overall forecast accuracy can be inconsistent and occasionally off from reality (radar/forecast reliability issues).
  • Update-related reliability problems (video playback issues and unreliable notifications).

Not a mention on the lame app. Says Watch til 1:00am. If my Florida weather app hadn’t told us we’d never have known. Worthless.

I like that it’s local weather, not the Twin Cities weather
