I've been a viewer of The Weather Channel ever since day 1… excellent weather reports but your Bra commercials and now Blue Chew is ridiculous! Do you really need this? Why? I'm very disappointed in you and so are many others. Clean up your act and don't lower your standards. Stick to th weather!
Appreciated her discussion and answering all your questions After that your reported stated that they have reached out to "president trump". Why? He is no one we want or need to hear from This is a serious situation that requires people that know what they are doing. He is useless as a human being.
Heather Tesch and her cronies are certifiable morons! "Ketchup Shortage Coming Due To Climate Change!" Anybody that passed high school or college biology knows that the science of climate shows it is a normal and regular fluctuation evidenced by historical record. We are Not going to have a ketchup shortage due to climate change, which is the explanation these fools use for everything that happens. Ketchup will be fine. If there is a greater demand for it, the private sector will generate enough ketchup. Tomatoes are a hot weather crop. Stop with the alarmist approach to everything that happens. According to the news stories published by the Weather Channel, the world is coming to an end very soon. I'm sure since I don't have proof of purchase of their Premium Service, probably wont get published.
Tip for consumers:
Don’t use it !
The weather channel continues to disappoint, if I want to watch heavy rescue I can go to Youtube! Local on the 8' s was very useful for your viewing audience and that is precisely where your focus should be. My forecast concerning the weather channel is a continued drought when it comes to weather!
I would like to see more weather reporting of the west. Colorado, California, Oregon and Washington have been hit hard this winter yet most of your forecasts are about what's happening on the east coast. I have been watching your channel for some 30 years. I like Mike and Stephanie and have been a fan for a longtime. So please give the West same coverage as the East.

No
I thought I was entering a 7 day free trial and found that it only applied to a monthly sub. The annual sub is not a free trial and once you sign up, it's over; you are paying and there is no refund. I think the web page was misleading, to say the least. I attempted to cancel in less than 12 hours but it didn't make any difference to them...they Got me. The reason I tried to cancel so quickly is that their site has so much info that is not related to just getting the local weather data that I signed up for.
12/30/2022 9AM EST: Date of this post. In the past year The Weather channel has increased ads way too much. It seems to IBM is trying to push the users to pay for Premium. Using an Android cell phone, it is horrible. Desktop and or laptop version isn't much better. Continuous ads to close or attempt get pass. A few ads along the side, top and bottom is fine but not how they are doing it. I understand millions and millions of people have The Weather Channel App installed and it was the best weather app but no more. I have begun my search for a better one but for now I haven't found one that doesn't bombard the user with ads.
Thank you
The Weather Channel is no longer a good source for weather news/updates as you must listen to their constant barrage of climate change propaganda. From your pet dog causing climate change because of its carbon foot print to them blaming flight turbulence on climate change. If they would simply STFU and do the weather.
The Weather Channel seems to be as accurate as any other website, although I generally use a different site to get my daily forecast. However, my objection is to their "news" content: Can your dog get COVID? I think that subject has been worked to death; time to move on to some other pandemic/panic/mass-hysteria subject to get the liberals worked up. Photo of a person *filming* the destruction of his vehicle from a distance...IDIOT award of the year! His 5-seconds of "fame" would have been better served to just drive himself and the dang car out of harm's way, rather than risk injury and death to film it. The internet is filled with images of stupid people doing stupid things. The Weather Channel seems to have fallen for the insatiable need for other stupid people to watch these vids. Facts are an endangered species; intelligence all but vanished from the American psyche, and we're currently in the THIRD generation of this lunacy. Is it too late to step back from the edge?
Tip for consumers:
Dozens of ways to distract the viewer from what he/she visited the website to find.
Why is the weather channel putting on stupid programs like who wants to date a comedian got to do with the weather. Or are funny, you should ask. That's nowhere near what weather related. Or highway through hell i it's the same thing same wreck same vehicles pulling them out just different color vehicles in different tow trucks. Weather going viral is the weather related also deadline to disaster or weather related, I believe I will quit watching the weather channel
Why do they have navigation button symbols that are 1% of the size of the button. Enlarge the symbols so we can actually see them! Make them almost the entire size of the button, why do I have to ask for this?
Tip for consumers:
I love TWC and I would purchase premium if they were insightful enough to make the navigation buttons accessible to sight-challenged customers. Please make the symbols at least 75% of the map navigation zoom button on the map. Here is a really simple idea just put a very large plus sign with no magnifying glass symbol and a very large minus sign.. like the multitudes of other sites have for zoom!
Weather.com couldn't tell the difference between a snow flake, and a Democrat, and your radar would be equal to that of our cht president Joe Biden! Garbage weather service, just like our garbage president!
Tip for consumers:
Go $#*! yourselves
If I could give them less than one star I would there is no way to get ahold of them and no response they suck they get f****** people killed by their dramatic b******* with hurricanes so that nobody takes it serious when a real hurricane comes they get people killed
Really, this is weather, we have all been living through it our whole lives. The weather Channel demonizes winter with word like, dangerous, hazardous, life threatening etc. There is beauty in it, not just fear. In this country the media is always projecting fear, no wonder everybody is on anti anxiety drugs. Don't be part of the fear mongering, be positive once in awhile, like say " you will be getting great snow for building snowmen,get outside, get some fresh air and enjoy, have some fun!"
Can't even access their website if an adblocker is installed? Adblockers are standard on workplace computers and some of us rely on weather updates to make it home safe. Kind of defeating the whole purpose of your organization if we have to risk company data breaches by disabling IT installed safety measures to check the weather. I'd give you 0 stars if that was an option. There are other revenue streams available to keep your website free to use without blocking important information.
I have seen better coverage on the Today Show and NBC Nightly News. Idiotic reports holding light posts. Hours of coverage of cranes that did not fall, 1 fell 2 did not. Nothing showing neighborhoods and flooding. Reporters were stationary with nothing new to say for hours. Reports telling people to stay inside as they hold onto to street signs and light posts to keep from being swept away in winds. COME ON, keep your employees safe. Get inside the building and take pics from windows. It's all sensationalized and ridiculous!
I've watched TWC for decades but I find their weekend, daytime segments and evening coverage to be lame.
I want weather. Not the fluff pieces about global warming or the 0light of wine growers. Weather nation has become a much more reliable source on a daily, 24 hour basis. While WM is reporting tornados in the evening, TWC is showing tow trucks and, well, more tow trucks.
WN has taken something that works and isn't "fixing" it. TWC has taken a working formula and broken it.
This weather site is virtually useless. It forecasts thunderstorms for days and then keeps pushing the timing back and back. Finally, there are not any thunderstorms; not even any rain. I am tired of the errors
And I will seek another weather website!
Tip for consumers:
Don't depend on the forecasts on weather.com
The weather channel app weather rader is about as accurate as a blind man in a dart throwing contest. It shows you weather system's moving trough places that the sun is actually shining. They need to do better or just stop predicting the weather all together...
Pattrn is absolutely the worst of the "new" Weather Channel. As soon as I see that it is on I turn it off or go to another channel. I hate way they try to make it like cross between Good Morning American and the national evening news. It is not fun to watch because it is so opinionated and full of itself. The other thing that as slowly changed is all of these ridiculous reality shows and almost no weather reporting on the weekends. Better get better Weather Channel or your gone from our cable package.
Cause you can't predict anything. Not even close. Why? If you old n can't keep up. Why? You get millions. So why can't you.? Your kids need money. They all paid a lot. So what's the deal? It's embarrassing to you it okay your family always taken care of.
Tip for consumers:
Absolutely zero
If you enjoy being inundated with climate change hysteria throughout the day, then this app is for you. If you just want the weather, then find another one. This app is a garbage purveyor for propaganda.
There are more ads than weather issues or news on this channel. Everytime I punch up a weather issue/news, I want punch the weather channel in it's proverbial vein. I wish there was a different reliable source. Not a fan!
The WC's radar is terrible. Is never correct. Yesterday was pouring where I was and the radar showed nothing in the area. Right now raining at my house, radar shows nothing. Will be deleting this app.
Terrible. It's gotten so bad. I watched them for years. They are a big joke.
I don't know why they still are on?
They lie, now they are trying to scheme more revenue, so you become a premium member. What a joke!
I don't understand what it is you people are doing because it sure af has nothing to do with weather. You guys have just cost me tons of money all because I trusted your useless weather forecast! Its never correct! NEVER! You people should be paying for the damages from the rain that wasn't supposedto happen. Thanks for nothing.
Tip for consumers:
Weather channel is absolutely useless
The Weather Channel is nice and reliable in giving hourly weather and pretty accurate. But... I am annoyed and may find a different website because they only show two day's worth of hourly weather now. They now want to suck money out of my pocket to get a week's worth of hourly weather.
The Weather Channel and weather.com provide a national and local weather forecast for cities, as well as weather radar, report and hurricane coverage
