I fully believe that AccuWeather takes…

I fully believe that AccuWeather takes money from government leaders to falsify weather forecasts in poplar tourist areas!!! I travel A LOT of them for work. The weather forecast is always very wrong!! Example " I'm in Colorado City Colorado for work. Today's forecast was high of 79 and NO RAIN!!! Well it was near 90& IT RAINS EVERY DAY HERE. ALWAYS!!!! Right at the base of a large mountain range so yes. It rains every day here. Mostly between 6 and 3 am. Problem!!"". HAIL. WHICH NEVER GETS REPORTED!!! So if your traveling through southern Colorado, Colorado City to Castle Rock??? Be prepared for HAIL. CRAZY HARD WINDS AND RAIN. EVERY STINKN DAY. BET !!!

S*it weather forecasting

S*it weather forecasting. I could do a better job sticking my head out a window. Always wrong with temp off by several degrees each day. Joke weather. Furthermore, John Coleman is rolling in his grave as you push global warming and climate hoax agenda. Just take yourself offline. Useless weather information.

AccuWeather is the most inaccurate weather app I have ever seen. It's best is the graphics it uses. That's it. Right now I'm sitting in an area of East Texas that currently shows thunderstorms over the top of my location, and it's bright and sunny. 🤣

Recently appear to use AI

In the past, I enjoyed Accuweather. Unfortunately, recently, it would appear that they are using AI in order to do all of their forecasts. I regularly get notifications that I am experiencing thunderstorms when, at best, it is partly cloudy!
Temperatures are off by at least 10 degrees, one way or the other, and humidity is often shown much less than it actually is.
I sincerely wish these companies would use actual meteorologists for accuracy rather than AI! AI is only helping to slow the overall stupidity of our nation's populace! Give us REAL INTELLIGENCE!

Version 21 is absolutely horrid

The currenr version 21 is absolutely the worst designed screen I have ever seen. Besides being inaccurate, the layout is totally unreadable. I went back to version 20 or drop accuweathet altogether. Why do companies think we want to see everything on one screen. The minutecast had most of what I wanted to see. The new screen stinks & has no information.

Very inaccurate

This weather app is terrible. The forecasts are rarely even close to accurate. They are in the advertising business, not the weather business.

This app has never been right

This app has never been right; it is wrong about 99% of the time. I only use the minutecast and ONLY when the storms are very close. One of many weather apps that are wrong, some more than others. They need to do a better job, because they are failing, badly.

Removing features to force additional payments

A few years ago I bought a lifetime pass.

Since then, they have removed several paid features in order to charge users (again) for premium.

As if the customer experience wasn't poor enough, they've also managed to decrease the accuracy of forecasts, making this app decreasingly useful.

I hope some brave lawyers file a class action lawsuit against Accuweather for dishonest business practices.

The widget stinks

The widget stinks. It will not update. Not the settings and I have the latest devices. It's supposed to be there to see at a glance but if it isn't up to date, it's useless. USELESS!!
The name is incorrect as well. It isn't very accurate.

Change the name to (In)accuweather

How can this company improve? Live up to your name. This service is THE biggest joke in weather forecasting. 2 years ago in Michigan we were warned of 12”-18” of snow - a ton for even western michigan. We didn’t even get our asphalt driveway whitened. What a joke. They missed it by 100%

Presently we’re under a severe thunderstorm warnings. Where is (in)accuweather? Offline. Again. They should be embarrassed.

Just about OK

It has a couple of good things - detail for one. But so inaccurate for rain. Slow to load and more adverts than weather sometimes when I log on. We have much more professional choices in the UK.

Not accurate for me!

The weather they AccuWeather foresees never comes, you can just it to guess that the opposite of what they say will happen.
