1st First review it is great works but needs Internet orit stays when last updated so its perfect go eli first review

Exactly what I was looking for

Current temperature, radar and forecast all on one screen! High resolution Lexington only radar or national radar makes it useful for those not in the WKYT viewing area. Downsides: graphic design leaves something to be desired and not multitasking enabled.

3 Thumbs Up!

Very easy to use. If your looking for a no-nonsense weather app that gets straight to business and skips all the useless fluff, this is the way to go. I like it, I like it a lot.

An Excellent App.

This is the best weather app there is. It gets straight to the point and is very fast loading and accurate. The forecasts and radar are also very nicely designed so that they are easy to look at and find weather information. Overall, a great app. *****

Great

I have 4 weather Apps and so far this one is great, very useful and informative, would like to see a better radar map, Mycast has the best radar map of all, that includes RadarScope.

Weak radar on iPhone

I hate to say this but WKYTs radar is not as good as WLEXs. It just doesnt show as near as much Doppler. I deleted it and re-installed the app. None better.

Not great

Worked very slowly before last update. Long load times, very little memory loop from the radar. Since the latest update: 1) does not store actual location. It always reverts to Lexington. 2) radar data is always shown as "data unavailable". No radar on the radar app? No good.

What!?

Hey I thought you got rid of the bugs, not add them. Then your come up with the idea of taking out the national radar way to go dumbA$$..

Like New Features, BUT

Use frequently and like the recent additions except cant seem to find and activate the new "future radar". Can only find historical radar - the past hour or so. Like the concept - where is it? UPDATE: Finally found "future radar" by switching from "FirstAlert Defender Radar" to next choice "Radar (Precipitation)".

Do not like the Update!

Love wkyt... But since new update it wouldnt load and show the weather on the map. I can only check what it will be . Its very annoying!!

Radar Track

This app has worked fine, so far, with the exception of when you are looking at the radar track and switch to 10 day, then switch back to radar track the radar track occasionally fails to return in its circular motion.

What happened?

This used to he a great app. The radar stopped working a little while back. Please fix it!!

Easy to use and as accurate as any.

Its the first weather app Im actually keeping and using. More accurate and way easier to use than any I have tried.

Good

This app is usually good but for some reason the radar map has been stuck on 4:51 am all day long. And since its after 2 pm the map is going to be reading 4:51 am and showing the exact same thing. Please fix.

Delayed Data

Compared to the radar images from the Weather Channel app, this apps data seems to be delayed by about 15 min. Critical flaw especially during the stormy season. Experienced this first hand today as a strong thunder storm raged over head, but this app still shows the storm as not yet here!

Radar hours behind

When I open the app at noon I want to see current radar not several hours ago such as 8 AM. How does that do me any good? All I can use the app for now is daily temperatures. Thanks for nothing.

Somethings Wrong

I dont know what youve done to this app, but it is not useful at all. Roads and other landmarks disappear when the area is enlarged, and theres no precipitation radar. Doesnt work for me!

Get LEX18s app

The radar on this app is horrible! Its never correct. I prefer WKYT to LEX18 but not where weather apps are concerned.

Was Good, But Not Now

This was a good weather radar app, but it is now frozen up and will not work! What the h*ll happened?

Doesnt work anymore

Stuck at 8:21 on my phone too. Too bad. This used to be my go-to weather app.
