“The Weather Underground app has improved since my last review”

James W.
1/7/20

The app has improved significantly over the past year. Precipitation feature is much better. The ten day forecast is better too, and it changes often, showing the latest updates, as it should. I was not happy a year ago, but I have to admit they've done a lot of work to make it more user friendly.

Look up the history of the Weather Underground. No business in their right mind would want to be remotely associated with it. Besides, "underground?" Weather "underground"? Who cares!?

The only reason to use the site is that it shows precipitation as a quantity rather than a probability and a picture to show the volume. Otherwise it's awful. Right as you start to see the trend in the ten-day data it suddenly overlays the data with an ad that you have to mouse to and dismiss. Intensely annoying. It's also really slow because it lays out the page block by block and doesn't know where the information will be until all the ads before it are loaded. And neither do you. You just have to sit and wait. But the app is worse.It's funny, I used to have a good feeling about IBM and now I hate whatever remains of it. And I have no real idea what the company even does anymore. Or even what country is based in. Rumor has it it belongs to the Chinese now.

Starting a day or so ago when I bring up Weatherunderground app or go to the website, it gets immediately taken over by an ad for Walmart coupons, which are a scam. Now my iPad warns the site is infected and won't let me go to it at all.

This happened a few months ago but went away, and has happened before that.

These so called ads do not appear on any other app.

It had been working okay.

The Wundermap is really quite great as it gives you a lot of options to view outside of just the radar.

The biggest problem with Wunderground is the weather predictions are rarely accurate and fluctuate quite often making planning your day around the weather using this site difficult.

It could be worse... it could be Weather.com.

If everyone gets their info from the National Hurricane Center, then why does their maps always have a different cone 20-30 miles different?

So happy they reverted to a previous format. The latest was sooo dumbed down & incredibly annoying that you had to scroll through bunches of info you didn't need to see what was important & had to change page to get to an extended forecast. Never had a reply to my customer service input but given this change just maybe someone is listening. Would love to have a customizable menu of what goes on my landing page :)
