Definite downgrade

This version uses "cards" to show you the location information (radar, hourly and daily forecast) that used to be on one simple page before. You must scroll through the cards to get to the one you are interested in, and then it only shows a 1-2 hour or day preview. Basically, the user interface is now much more complicated and much more work to get the same info that was on one nice page before. Furthermore, the old app has been suspended so you can't use it and they force download of the new one. This used to be my favorite weather app due to simplicity and accuracy. I am now deleting both. Would NOT recommend.
Made for young eyes or really good lighting

The fonts in this version are VERY small and the contrast is almost nonexistent, making it very difficult to read. It's also annoying that you have to scroll through the 'cards', and you can't change the order to get your favorites closer together. Very disappointed! Weather Channel or Accuweather are my go-tos now
Awful

If it wasn't broke, why did it need to be fixed? Takes multiple steps, and even then I cannot see what I want. Absolutely useless. DELETE!!!
School closings NEVER load!

Don't update! School closings never load... It just gets hung up on banner ads.
From Great Weather App to Click Bait

The best part of this app was easy navigation and a well-written weather summary. Now, they made navigation difficult and removed the summary along with several other great features. Weather info is now average at best. Worst part is that they placed ads above the top navigation bar. Almost impossible if you have semi-thick fingers not to hit an ad.
Great upgrade

This ap is much more reliable than its predecessor . The forecasts are updated more quickly, and seem to be more accurate. It loads more quickly and has fewer annoying network errors. When I check the temp and hourly later it remembers to update its data instead of being stuck at the same hour I last checked like the last ap. channel 3000 is the most accurate weather ap for mad area in my experience.
Disappointed

Very difficult to get working and overlays did not display, needs updating more.
Worst app for advertising

Any slide with the finger near one of their on screen advertisers will launch the advertisers web site. I swear sometime they launch by looking at them. Park Bank is nasty to get out of, some have a time to wait before closing.
