This is my go-to app, I use it several times every day and constantly throughout storm days. I really wish it wasn't being discontinued 3/31/23 😔

Only had this app for about a week, good job this far🙆🏽♀️🙆🏽♀️🙆🏽♀️🙆🏽♀️

I am very happy with this weather app! Easy to use, easy to understand, and so far very accurate. Best of all I don't have to click through commercials to exit.
★★★★★
We live in Whitney and you provide me with the correct info all the time compared to the closer large town that wants to give us old weather as well as talking about south of there, not north, so we will stick with DFW weather. Thanks, Scott.
★★☆☆☆
This is the WORST weather app. How can you say rain is 100% certain, and then it never happens. These weather people are the WORST. If I failed at my job as much as these people do I would've been fired years ago. Clowns 🤡🤡🤡🤡
★★☆☆☆
Despite having downloaded the CBSDFW Weather app a number of months ago, I am no longer able to get any volume. This has become quite problematic. Can you help me resolve this issue?
★★☆☆☆
I enjoyed the app while using it. It shows it being unsupported after 3/31/2023. Downloaded another local station app and the interface is very similar. Now wondering which app was created first. And if that's why this app is going away.
