Absolutely inaccurate
Absolutely inaccurate . The weather predictions change by the minute. Not even remotely close to the actual weather that occurs.
People shouldn't have to dig for the…
People shouldn't have to dig for the main facts, not in conversation, not online, not on the app. Why do I have to scroll so damn far past a bunch of garbage to see the wind direction and speed? That's a main fact that should be next to the temperature!!!
They just guess at the weather.
Soo I’m pretty sure they just guess. I could be a better weather man than they are. Just go outside. Whatever the weather is at that moment is how you will know what the weather is. It’s better than what they provide you with. I looked it said 6 percent chance of rain. No rain on the radar. Just partly cloudy. Well it’s down pouring here with thunder. I just looked 3 mins prior to the rain. Then I looked again… and it’s now 60 percent chance of rain and thunder. Get it together weather channnel!!!!!!! You are absolutely horrific at your job! We can do a better job than you!!! They just guess. Even if it’s raining where I’m at they still don’t even update you snd tell you it’s sunny out. So insane.
I just noticed you have "Gulf of…
I just noticed you have "Gulf of America" instead of the correct name "Gulf of Mexico" on your map??? WTF??? I will never have anything to do with this channel or app. This is just wrong. You are not just bending one knee to trumph, you are full blown on both knees for trumph. SHAME ON YOU!!!
Weather Channel, Weather.com, a misinformation media platform.
The weather channel, weather.com, intentionally provides inaccurate weather in real-time. The online site and specifically televised news channel, acts as a media platform not factual news reporting, continuously produces misleading reports and misinformation when compared to NWS and other weather reporting agencies. The new interactive map eliminated essential features and functions making it more user unfriendly than prior versions. The previous intuitive interactive radar is replaced by broken interface hides critical data behind ads and it's confusing layout. Weather.com makes claims "most accurate weather" but deliberately exaggerates daily / hourly current conditions and outlooks by obscurring the actual day and time in their visuals. Recent updates are ad-heavy layouts. Using the zoom is overly sensitive, wobbles and bobbles like shaking a snow globe, and requires expert finger dexterity beyond the average user's abilities. Pop-up ads and clickbait videos are aggressively fake ads and placements routinely block the user's views.
Something happened to this website…
Something happened to this website about six months ago. It used to be much more reliable.
Truly horrible app
Truly horrible app. It will literally say it's raining here and won't be a drop of rain falling. Or it will be raining and it shows that it's not. You'd be better off just sticking your head out the door and looking. It's heat index prediction is nearly always low. If it says the index will be 102 you better be ready for 105. No idea why it comes preloaded on Samsung phones. Making me lose my trust in Samsung.
Poor static remote locations
Poor static remote locations. Too many reruns of videos. Need a fashion designer to dress tv personalities
One guy is way too animated on map
It is not a weather app
It is not a weather app - it is a virus , disgusting !!!!!
Very glitchy
Very glitchy , no consistency ,always changing the map and title page and the way you interact with their site. It is rubbish . No way in Hades would I pay for the premium. Accuweather is much better
The content and accuracy has gone to…
The content and accuracy has gone to S#!t. They use multiple models and they all act like they don’t know what to believe. They play 1 hour of live content and then put it on repeat for 4 days. The app constantly crashes on the TV and the phone. The business model, content and staff confidence needs a complete refresh. The advertising department with the same commercials playing 4x in a row is ridiculous. It’s hard to keep this show playing for more than 30 min.
Sucks... Just guess; you'll be more accurate
Sucks.... Sometimes it says it has an issue showing a map in your area then shows you weather in some random city far away.... Also, security app on phone shows the weather app is constantly sending tracking bots to your phone that it has to shut down.... The app is also about as accurate as guessing the weather... Sometimes it says 90 percent rain now or will end soon... go outside and it's sunny and never rained..... The ads also suck when you can't even see accurate weather.
They have now eliminated worded…
They have now eliminated worded forecasts, and in some cases you can't get the forcast for the evening/night.
Just keeps on getting weaker
Just keeps on getting weaker! No longer a reliable forecast after 2 hrs.
THE NEWEST WEATHER DISASTER IS...THE WEATHER CHANNEL
The Weather Channel used to be held in good regard by us military WX types. Not so any more. The WC has managed to get worse and worse! More ads, reformatting and "fixing" what was Not broken, made navigating the website harder...AND now the radar just links 15 minute interval "snapshots" that make it look like the radar image is having seizures. It used to be my "go to" for comparing WX forecasts. What is happening at "The Weather Channel"???? It's a disaster!
The weather channel is always wrong
The weather channel is always wrong ! They are never right ! They need to be shut down ! This is fraud and a scam !
Conflicting weather forecast - Totally incopetent!
The weather channel forecast for tomorrow for Corpus Christi says 100% chance of rain with 1 to 2 inches expected, while the forecast they are showing at the bottom of the TV screen shows 10% chance of rain for tomorrow. IDIOTS!!!!
The new forecasters especially Tom are…
The new forecasters especially Tom are as incompetent as you get. Fix it or my reports will stop. What the ............ what ever this no experience no local to gulf person yall hire suck.
The website and app regularly glitch
The website and app regularly glitch, have way too many ads, provide inaccurate information and generally underperform in every category, failing to meet my most basic expectations for a weather service. At one time, I feel like they were decent, but that has been a very long time ago.
