Good information, which I could just as easily access on the website in the browser. Couldn't stand the loud -- no matter how low the other notifications are set -- announcement that a report is ready; took forever to figure out how to turn that off. The literally constant push notification, whether there are any changes or not, has got to go.

As long as you turn off all notifications, it's a terrific app. I've been kind of a weather geek for years - this has the best futurecast radar animation that I've ever seen. Pay a few bucks for RainAlarm, that will give you the notifications you want. If you allow WSFB to notify you, it will loudly announce that "a new station alert has arrived" way too often. I thought I had malware in my system, and it woke me up a few times before I figured it out. Overall though, it's great.

Update 8/7/2024: App is terrible. I may have to delete as I am randomly getting a voice notification that says "A new station alert has arrived". I have notifications turned off for the app and I can't get rid of it. Research shows this is a problem with CBS affiliate weather apps. Fantastic App During a recent thunderstorm I was comparing the radar on this app to another weather app that I have used for years. The radar on this is far superior and was up to the minute.
