Funny you mention it, forecast.weather.gov is now the first link on my phone browser's start page. I made the switch after the wunderground app started refusing to update and otherwise glitched out constantly. The only downside is I have to actively think check the weather in the morning rather than just have it presented.
- dawnerd 8y agoIt sucks how badly wunderground has gotten. I run my own weather station and it only syncs to WU. Almost tempted to intercept the api calls and store the data locally...
- Ice_cream_suit 8y agoWeather Underground is yet another IBM company. So is Weather Channel. "On October 28, 2015 IBM officially announced an agreement to acquire The Weather Company’s business-to-business, mobile and cloud-based web properties, including Weather Underground, WSI, weather.com, and also the Weather Company brand." IBM buys firms and then proceeds to eviscerate them. Value destruction is their strong suit.
- mistrial9 8y agoI suspect that a company the size of IBM can do positive things, too.. so, lets not curse the situation, eh?
- bleriot 8y agoWell, as a patent troll and supplier to the Nazis, their positives would have to be pretty big to outweigh their negatives.
- jrnichols 8y ago"Storm" used to be a GREAT weather app, until they basically just ruined it and then forced people over to the Wunderground app. Which is also pretty bad.
