“Channel 7 weather Denver!”

ronald s.
3/2/23

Channel 7 Denver best weather forecast in Denver! Why? Because they actually make a forecast! They tell us what we can expect! Dave Aguilera channel 4 the worst! What a joke! It's like listening to Father Guido Sarducee! " It will be rainy or sunny! Depending on the weather!" Mike Nelson and rest of team! A+! They do their job! News 4,9,fox don't tell you anything! I live in mtns and need to know in inches how much snow is coming! Call em like I see em folks! Watch News 7 if you want an actual forecast!

Can't stand listening to the network preaching to us about climate change like it's our fault and pushing this crap. It's a natural cycle the earth Is going through. Just stop it you leftist activists.

I remember when this weather app was top notch. Now it is the worst desktop weather app ever and they want you to pay. Forget it.

I have been a premium subscriber for several years. I hate the new update! I may have to find a new weather service.

Even when pretending to show weather they fail miserably. No national maps. Confusing graphics and haphazard presentations of what they do show. Hosts sitting on a couch showing off the female's legs and trying to make stupid jokes. In the evening just show tow trucks or the weather 20 years ago. If someone is watching TWC they want to see the actual weather and forecast for the whole nation. Why can't they understand this simple concept?

I've watched TWC for decades but I find their weekend, daytime segments and evening coverage to be lame.

I want weather. Not the fluff pieces about global warming or the 0light of wine growers. Weather nation has become a much more reliable source on a daily, 24 hour basis. While WM is reporting tornados in the evening, TWC is showing tow trucks and, well, more tow trucks.

WN has taken something that works and isn't "fixing" it. TWC has taken a working formula and broken it.

I understand we can't be accurate with the weather all the time but since I've been using this do you want us to pay for something that you can't even have the weather app accurate and weather like today says it's going to rain at five can you change it to 710 to 8 now it's 11 it ain't worth me paying you guys money if you can't get it to work correctly. Have a nice day

Jim Cantore was reviewing toys for the backyard with Lori Schat from the toy insider, And he was trying out a rubber band fired airplane and he couldn't believe how far it went across the studio and said Oh Sh@t! But he said the The dirty word. I thought it was hilarious to see somebody act human and not perfect all the time

With the advances in technology you would think the weather forecasts would be more accurate. In my opinion the weather channel might as well shut down. Predictions for rain have been haphazard at best (more like lets roll the dice and if its 7 we'll call for rain). As we say in my neck of the woods...weather people are the only folks that get paid for being wrong 99% of the time. Here's an idea...just like the news...keep your mouth shut, put up the radar and I'll determine what's going to happen. I'm sure I can do a better job.

Can't even access their website if an adblocker is installed? Adblockers are standard on workplace computers and some of us rely on weather updates to make it home safe. Kind of defeating the whole purpose of your organization if we have to risk company data breaches by disabling IT installed safety measures to check the weather. I'd give you 0 stars if that was an option. There are other revenue streams available to keep your website free to use without blocking important information.

I have been watching your bias weather channel, meaning the weather portion is great, your opinions should not be shown. Example, the shooting of the destructive cows i believe were in Arizona, you know nothing about that situation, you just know wild cattle were being shot for ruining land and jeopardizing natural wildlife. Just seen you promoting polluting the oceans by putting in porcelain toilets to help oysters. You should be ashamed of yourself. Just report the weather, not your uniformed personal opinion

They have really been unhappy, no hurricane damage yet. No storms are headed to the U.S. yet.
Find a reputable LOCAL meteorologist and watch them. Don't watch or listen to the weather channel.
They will tell you anything, they don't care if its a big fat stretch of the imagination! They have stood near my back yard in Florida and said the weather conditions are terrible and the wind is blowing less than 15 mph and its raining! They are losers!

Any chance you guys can stop inventing your own stupid language? Making up your own acronyms and made up language not only sounds ridiculous, but complicates some people's ability to even follow your coverage, seems like it might even be dangerous trying to keep up with all your ridiculous made up terminology. I just don't understand the need for your meteorologists to make up their own words and acronyms. Keep it simple and making up your own terminology makes it look like you're desperate for ratings?

Why is the weather channel putting on stupid programs like who wants to date a comedian got to do with the weather. Or are funny, you should ask. That's nowhere near what weather related. Or highway through hell i it's the same thing same wreck same vehicles pulling them out just different color vehicles in different tow trucks. Weather going viral is the weather related also deadline to disaster or weather related, I believe I will quit watching the weather channel

I thought I was entering a 7 day free trial and found that it only applied to a monthly sub. The annual sub is not a free trial and once you sign up, it's over; you are paying and there is no refund. I think the web page was misleading, to say the least. I attempted to cancel in less than 12 hours but it didn't make any difference to them...they Got me. The reason I tried to cancel so quickly is that their site has so much info that is not related to just getting the local weather data that I signed up for.

The number of ads are bad enough, but the placement of the odds are ridiculous. It's gotten so bad, but now the ads actually pop up and block the view of the daily weather forecast.
The app constantly crashes, and the content of the articles is silly. It's shrill and shrieking and has a lot of Clickbait headlines written for fourth graders. Terrible all the way around zero stars.

Good morning. My husband and i watch the weather channel every morning. I have no problem with any of the meteorologist except, for the African American female that is one. She is so hard to understand. She talks way to fast. And does not speak as clear as Paul.

Tip for consumers:
Have meteorologist that speak clear English

If you enjoy being inundated with climate change hysteria throughout the day, then this app is for you. If you just want the weather, then find another one. This app is a garbage purveyor for propaganda.

Who is the moron who is putting ads in the middle of the daily forecast?
It blocks most of the forecast so you can't read it and you cannot X out of the ad.

The Weather Channel is amazing! It alerts you of severe weather and you can see the forecast. I will continue to use the Weather Channel app every day.
