Terrible weather facts
January 20, 2020

Very terrible reports, weather conditions are already reported but yet totally different at my location. What can possibly be wrong with current conditions that they do not have proof of. We are experiencing light snow but according to there current radar nothing is happening. This is not the first time of false information.

Oh dear god
March 25, 2023

So most of the fetuses are blocked by premium and as you can see in the video that is free on the weather app on apple and even weather channel without their payed version. (If they have one) And they delayed there emergency alert so much that the iPhone alert (this is put after a eas broadcast on tv) is there before the apps alert (of course you pay to get the alert faster) and most reviews on the App Store are fake made from AccuWeather (just a speculation but seeing how bad it is, is why I say this). When you pay it's not worth it you get 5 new things to see that you could see on other apps without paying. There live tv (current time in Atlanta for me) says that there is an ef3 or higher but most others say it's only a very weak ef1 or 0 which make this unacceptable because this could make people over react or under react costing lives. And to put the cherry on top they are trying to block the National weather service from giving you coverage for the weather. I wish I could give this app 0 stars or even negative cause I could go on and on about how bad this is.

Not very accurate
August 24, 2022

While it is lovely they have a listed forecast for most places (or at least one nearby), they are often off by by up to 4° Centigrade in places like Alice Springs, Australia. A considerable over/underestimation. After some weeks I've become accustomed to re-jigging their forecasts based on my experience. I suspect they have no software that let's them know there forecasting is very inaccurate. Wind speeds are out as well though direction is good.
The humidity thing is a complete joke in this country.
Don't download the app but if you want forecasting for far-flung places, just bookmark the pages & adjust for their numbers related in accuracies.

Said 0% chance of rain and have now been in a torrential downpour for more than an hour and doesn't look like it will let up any time soon. This isn't the first time - in fact more often than not. Wish I got paid big bucks to just "guess" at the weather and when I'm wrong just blame on whatever. Any other job, you'd be fired!

AccuWeather Ad agency
January 22, 2019

I understand funding a site with advertising, but really! Pop ups on the radar that cannot be closed... ad's between every piece of pertinent weather info! You should rename your site "Billboard"... I'm done with you. Apparently you haven't listened to any of the other reviews, pretty sure mine will get as much attention

Accuweather sucks...
February 3, 2023

Trying to get little bits of information thru all the God damn ads. Is frustrating, give us a break or just shut down. Who ever runs this site is a joke.

Had the AccuWeather App for a few years, never an issue. Foe 2 mos now, the app just closes upon opening. I have given feedback so many times with no solutions to come my way. Don't waste your time with this app.

These scares of hail and tornadoes in Dallas without any time frame of when it starts and ends are completely worthless! Not useful or helpful at all! Accuweather has been consistently inaccurate compared to other sites, like weather.com, and they don't provide near the detail. It's just worthless and aggravating to listen for 20-30 minutes and still not know what is happening or whether there is concern. By far the most disliked of all weather services! Completely Worthless!

I have submitted many concerns about covering the midwest. (Very Poor). Every time I go to the channel 361 on Direct TV it seems to always be showing either the east or west coast. I live in Kansas City and you might get 10 seconds on the Midwest. This stinks! I have been in severe weather warning and even in a "tornado warning" and there was absolutely no coverage for my area to be found! Get better meteorologists also and get rid of that Bloomberg sounding guy. He's horrible. I'm sorry but I've been using 362 weather on Direct TV. They even have local weather option. Midwest, midwest, midwest!

Change for the worse
September 19, 2019

I used to be able to browse Accuweather.com easily with JavaScript disabled. Now, the pages won't even load without JavaScript turned on--they're completely blank. And the new layout for the extended forecasts is absolutely terrible.

This site is no longer usable in my opinion.
