I Love this TV Station, I have watched them all my life. Loren Boatman was a great weatherman. I remember Jerry as the news reporter. WAND news and weather forecast is always my go-to station for news and storms ❤❤❤❤📺👍

Very up to date on the news, it's free unlike the hearld and review.

The staff at WAND, appears to be middle of the road. In my opinion "They" don't try to sway your feelings/opinions. Unlike other 'local' television channels in Central Illinois that try to brainwash the world/public. The weather team is on top of the Illinois fiasco we call weather. They are very proactive on alerts and situations.

I uninstalled this app & installed WCIA tv 3/49 & it is similar, but better than wand tv weather app by far. The person that said CIA regrets changing app must have mistyped CIA, when meaning wand. I'm sure folks at channel 17 are regretting decision to go with ad bombardment.... I just had to reinstall this app to make this comment. I never give reviews on Anything, but felt I had to in this instance. Uninstalling WAND app again now, wish I didn't have to.....

Terrible. News is rarely updated. The stories are the least 2–3 days old.

2 generations of our family have had to use additional news apps to try to get Decatur, Macon county news. You get news from all over central Illinois but can't find out why what looked like a police chase ended up at Walmart w several cop cars, firetrucks and an ambulance. That's just one example. I live in a basically peaceful neighborhood and one night someone stood by the corner of my house and was shooting across the street at a family house, with kids! Nothing!
