The original Accuweather App was pretty good. I could find forecasts by hour or by day and quickly drill down into the details. It was replaced recently by a new version (beta) and it is horrible. Bring back the original, please!

I could become a weatherman easily it might snow it might not snow there's a winter storm watch or maybe there isn't there's a 50/50 chance of snow. I mean really who can't be a weatherman all they do is flip a coin and get paid for it f****** sickening

I have been so disappointed with Accu Weather. Direct TV offers it with their basic package and I do not like it all. I was used to the Weather Channel where they send their forecasters out into the field to report live from current weather situations. I find video of weather situations amazing. I do not like watching someone standing in front of a busy weather map all day and night which is pretty much all Accu Weather does. It is a waste of a channel for me.

I have never been so disappointed in a website that I used to consider to be completely safe to visit. What used to be my "go to" site whenever the weather would take a turn for the worst, is now a website that I will avoid. A recent visit to Accuweather's Doppler radar area of their website was so overrun by advertisements, including one that indicated that I needed to add a new extension to my Chrome settings before I could view the radar. This extension turns out to be harmful malware. So, I'm done with Accuweather. They obviously don't care about keeping their website safe.

I will sell my phone because of this piece of trash weather program. The only forecast that I can rely on from this app is that I know that there will be freezing on my phone. I get a better forecast asking my dog what the weather is going to be today. But if you like ads, then this app is for you. On the other hand if you want the weather forecast, go to the window and look outside. Make a guess. Guaranteed that you will have a better chance of getting it correct than this useless excuse for weather information.

Very American: over 75% of the webpage is adverts. Irrelevent, wrong language, ads. The actual weather maps are tiny with oversize labels. And worst of all - it defaults to 'F instead of the global standard 'C.
And one corner they even suggest paying for this.

Definately the worst weather app/service i've seen.

Forcasts seem to be fairly accurate. But OMG the adds are ridiculous. I get it, its a free app and they need to make a buck. But seriously it is over kill. Sad they do this.

Worst app ever
June 5, 2021

You change every hour to try and keep up with NOT being wrong. Your site is a piece of trash and i dont know what hottie you had (talk) to the head of at&t to get your garbage on their phones, but obviously the ( talking) worked. 2 of the worst internet sites, at&t and accuweather. Should call yourselves, neverrightweather.com

I always enjoyed going on to see how much snow fell in my area in the monthly history. I go on to see how much snow we have so far this year and I was unpleasantly surprised to see you can't do that anymore :( . I hope this feature comes back...

Just poor.
December 1, 2019

On one day this site gave my location a maximum of 18 degrees when the high of the day was 28 degrees celsius. This site can't be reliable. That's it. That's the conclusion. Just poor. One star is one star too many.

I used to use Accuweather almost daily. I particularly liked the Minutecast feature. Now with the memory/bandwidth hog ads it is so slow it that I can look out the window and get better and more timely weather information. I now use the Windows 10 app and it is OK. Not as feature rich as the OLD Accuweather, but at least it is acceptable for the area forecasts.

The one that came on my LG phone is not accurate on temperature, hourly, and is not that easy to navigate. I love to delete it, but it is permanent on the phone. There are much better weather apps out there.

This morning I got up and checked Accuweather for current conditions. Instead I got a popup add for a Google thingamajig and a line that said Todays Weather: same as yesterday (it wasn't by the way) and that was enough for me. The app was deleted. If I could give them zero stars I would.

Horrible Adds
December 21, 2018

The adds on my Mobil phone are unbelievable. They always cover content. I like the weather forecast they provide but I can't take the adds that cover my weather. I try to close some out and they won't close.

I'm a casual weather bug and monitor NWS forecast and several others. AccuWeather is awful, I see day after day significant missed forecast of temperature, and rain probability for my local area.

Accuweather

It stinks. Why did Verizon fios drop it? It doesn't even compare to the weather channel. It's the same live coverage repeated over and over again. It really isn't even worth watching. The people aren't good reporters. Accu weather is very disappointing during major weather issues.

Beta crap
April 11, 2020

Before beta update AccuWeather was five star review from me but since the update it is a piece of crap I wish I could return to the original AccuWeather. It is a shame to see a nap go down hill that was really good

Ladies of Accuweather are giving the weather channel a serious competition for the most watched. Constanzer and Pash are the new "Hotties" along with competent reporting. Need a more up to date set/platform for these up and coming stars!

Accuweather now sucks
August 13, 2020

Accuweather is now clouded with so many advertisements it is not worth spending time on. Many of these are stratigically placed to cause accidental access and more frustration and waste of time. This review is submited as termination of wasting time on you.
