I love the fact that no matter where I am I get the weather for that city and state. The radar is very visible and on point. I depend on this information every day. We also plan vacations and travel by looking at the future forecast. Thank you for all your information!, what was true then still holds true today 👍🏻

I've used this app on every phone I've had since it came out years ago. Hands down, 48 News & Weather is the only place I get my local news. It's the best in the state of Alabama, especially in North Alabama. Brad Travis is Awesome!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Accurate weather app. I don't really like the radar update & liked the layout before the last update
★★★★★D “Firfyter” E· May 1, 2026
Pretty accurate forecast information and good live feed coverage during storms. It also works good when traveling.

Always there when you need it... you have a weather radar in your pocket
★★★★★Mary Hutchens· May 18, 2026
Waff is the best. If you need to know if the roads are bad are you need to know if you should wear a coat or sweater or how the weather is going to be.

It's great for day to day weather forecasts, though it's a little slow. When it comes to emergencies the app rarely sends me timely notifications and often doesn't have anything at the top about the emergency. My weather radio will go off long before the app does (if the app notifies me at all). I have the app specifically to get notified about tornados, and an hour+ delay makes me worry about when I may be caught away from home (and subsequently my radio).

LIFE THREATENING USER INTERFACE UPDATE. This app used to automatically show tornado tracks on the radar. Today I was awakened by a tornado warning siren. I opened the app and saw the tornado warning announcement as an option, I poked that, and it displayed a blocky diagram of my county, but not the radar. Then I figured out the user interface had been changed. I spent precious minutes figuring out to poke + at the end of the floating bubbles, and had to create a custom view to see tracks.

I'm just keeping the app for the radar and alerts. I just lowered my rating to one star because the last update made the app to not be able to rotate into landscape view. Developers, please let me know when this is fixed. EDIT; The on-screen pull down bar with the current temperature has changed. Now the temperature display is so tiny, I need reading glasses to see it. Please change it back so the temperature is easily visible like before with the temperature back in the status bar.
