## Review summary

WSPA Weather is praised for accurate forecasts, fast radar, and a feature-rich experience, but suffers from intrusive ads, degraded radar/map quality after updates, and removal of key features (like earthquakes) which hurts usability. Overall performance is strong when ads and UI changes don’t hinder usage, but many users want the old version back.

### Pros

- Accurate and dependable forecasts.
- Very fast radar/map loading with smooth navigation.
- Rich feature set (storm tracks and earthquake data) and easy multi-location setup across the USA.
- Sleek, polished visuals/UI when not hindered by updates.

### Cons

- Intrusive, pervasive ads that block content and interrupt viewing alerts.
- Radar/map quality degraded after updates (loss of satellite view and overlays; earthquakes data no longer shown).
- Update makes the app harder to use and less intuitive (cluttered, harder to find information).
- Loss of key features from older versions (earthquakes data) and requests by users to revert to the old version.
