Reviews
Missing a huge area
ppredhomme
It seems to be missing the northeast shoreline of Lake Huron- all of it north of Au Gres.
Inaccurate forecasting
Growler50
Of all the weather apps I use it is the most inaccurate. The wind speed and direction are the biggest problem and for boaters this is by far the most important factor to know! The other problem is that it is not updated during the day. Most weather apps are updated at least hourly.
When it works - I love it. Often I can not get it to load and work properly.

I like the app when it actually works. I’ve deleted it and downloaded it again. The trouble is that it seems often that that I get a blank screen instead of my forecasting lll.u
Quick way to reference NWS forecast
Capt. Rain
This app is a great way to reference the national weather service forecasts. I’ve been relying on it for years as the captain of passenger vessels. The only reason I gave I four stars is because I really wish you could access the marine synopsis.
