Ratings and Reviews
Best weather app. Ever!
I was on a cruise up the coast from Portugal-to-France. Noticed a bunch of people parked w/their cell phones around a McDs just as we made out 1st stop in France. Turned on my Wi-Fi & joined them. Hit the WLEX weather app on ‘follow’ & it gave me a accurate forcast! It’s pretty accurate from Somerset (KY) too.😉
Font too small
While it’s troublesome to read the hourly/daily app it becomes dangerous when one cannot even begin to make out what the weather alerts state. Between obnoxious ads popping up while trying to make out words on the special weather statement page and the fact the font is soooo small along with the white sun beams covering each page (or whatever they’re supposed to be) it’s near impossible to figure out what LEX18 is trying to warn the app user about. The rest of the app is great. Fix the font size though or give us an option to enlarge or decrease it.
“Nowcasting”
Seems there’s quite a bit of “nowcasting” when it comes to precipitation. I’ve seen the chance of precipitation percentage change significantly within the same day depending on whether it’s raining or not.
Also, Chris Bailey’s forecasts often vary from what’s on the app. Aren’t they supposed to be on the same team? When storms are coming, whether summer or winter, I follow Chris on Twitter and his blog. He seems to be the most reliable and knowledgeable.
