I cannot save locations and the weather maps do not auto update. No weather symbols on map. These features were part of Intellicast.
I have been a subscriber for 12 years, and have seen the features and reliability decline step by step. Each time it changes hands ( sold to the Weather Channel and then to IBM) it becomes less than what it was. Sadly predictable I guess, but what I can't understand is why the guy who founded it, Dr. Jeff Masters, can bear to remain associated with it. Are you listening Dr Jeff?
What used to be a comprehensive, incredibly useful and user friendly website is now lost somewhere, seemingly without a plan to do anything about it.
Four stars is how I used to feel about Weather Underground.
Now it's just the one star. I hope that it can soon return to the four it then deserved.
It's Wednesday, May 8th and about noon, CDT. Why does the Intellicast US map still show the radar for Monday, May 6th.? What a waste of time.
How do you take a great functioning, and useful, website and screw it up sooooooooooooooooooo badly? I mean seriously, this is the worst site now. I just use my local T. V. station's map. It's far superior to this "thing."
Weather underground is worse than useless. The 10 day forcast works maybe 5% of the time. Why in the world did they get to subsume Intellicast, which has been my favorite for years?!?
I'm a professional pilot who used Intellciast EVERY DAY! But this JOKE of a system is useless! Today, at 5:45 AM I opened up the site hoping to see radar summary and cell tops information! I was greeted by 6:15 PM the previous night information!
No one can depend on this for aviation!
This is a huge loss for general aviation!
Clunky, slow, stalling, & most USELESS site, EVER! Scrap this and go back to original Intellicast maps. GARBAGE< GARBAGE< GARBAGE!
This site has done such an incredibly embarrassing job of cutting the balls out of a truly great Weather Site. Intellicast has great Radars. Where are they? What happened to the Flint, MI radars, Caribou, ME radars and others? What happened to the Interactive Radars and the Storm Radars, and the very valuable 1km Radars? The stuff that remains is dumbed down for the hoi polloi, and the rest just GONE! Navigation on what's left is not at all intuitive -- some brainless fart did the coding for that. WU has made an absolute travesty of this with no improvement for three months.
I miss Intellicast so much. Wunderground frequently doesn't load properly (Chrome on a Mac), and forecasts seem off. When the map actually works (infrequently), it's pretty good, but I'd like it to default to radar. So many extra clicks to see what I want, and usually it doesn't completely load or fails to load altogether. Shoddy web development. Very poor site. If Wunderground bought Intellicast, they should have just replaced all their code with that from Intellicast.
I can't believe they have kept it up this long. I switched after they killed a great website but check back now again just to giggle. They arent joking about Brutus -he not only destroyed the servers but apparently ate all personnel with coding skills. If you want an object lesson in how NOT to do things then look no further than WU.
I was extremely leary when Weather Wunderground combined with my intellicast. At first it was fine. But now it just plain sucks! I want my 10 day forcasts back. I want Intellicast back. I need good weather for my job. This sucks. Hated Weather Wunderground before they combined. Really hate them for taking over Intellicast. This sucks.
Won't load or loads then disappears. Logout and login seemed to help. Always seems slow. Even with a paid no advertising subscription, it seems like it downloads all the ads and then doesn't display them. It isn't any faster. I've tried other weather sites and like this one the best, but can't get it to work now.
There are so many problem with this site... there is no one to help. It seems abandoned. I delete favorite cities, but they are all back with the next click. The radar doesn't work. Nothing works. It's slow. It doesn't work
It doesn't work! What a piece of crap.
Used Intellicast for I don't know how many years, definitely more than 7 or 8. And I actually used Weather Underground for the same period for their focus on Tropical systems when they were brewing. God knows what gave us this mess we have today.
This page needs a zero star option.
Cannot login any more. Email address unknown, password recovery fails (email unknown), contact form not usable (returns error), emails not answered.
FTP camera image upload via GSM module fails most of the time.
I quit using the service.
I have been a member for many, many, years, but this year will be the last. The paid sites do not load properly, the animation on radar does not function, no one answers an email with my concerns, why bother. It was an excellent site and a reliable source of information, the absolute best, however, since its acquisition by TWC it has gone down in flames very quickly. So, if TWC doesn't care about their customers and their site, I shall reciprocate. What a shame. Cato, NY
This used to be one of the best. Now it seldom loads correctly and is an exercise in frustration. A great disappointment.
I'm not aware of what Wunderground used to be or didn't used to be. All I know is that Intellicast was my go-to weather site for years, and Intellicast was 100 percent problem-free and user-friendly. Upon being taken over by Wunderground, this site is a complete joke. Computer usage 20 years ago wasn't this slow and choppy. Two minutes into your visit, you need a Xanax. Weather Underground should be ashamed of itself. And sadly, I can't find anything close to being equivalent to Intellicast.
I've used WU for years. Recent changes making the site unstable/unreliable combined with their view that earth and sky are falling due to the politically-charged, climate change issue have made me question WU.
Recommend WU fix their site glitches and stop claiming all weather happens now due to "climate change"... just report the weather and move on.
