User Reviews
Always enjoyed watching Chris and Dan on the local television station and thrilled to see them embark on this venture. Absolutely love being able to have detailed local weather information at my fingertips any time I need it!
Very useful and local weather. Chris an Dan are the most reliable in the area. Live coverage during storms is great to have.
I love this app and how informative it is to our local weather and all of the options to receive alerts !
Easy to navigate, easy to set preferences. This app has replaced all other weather apps on my phone.
Chris and Dan got us through so many storms with their extensive weather knowledge and calming manner; no sensational hype as with some channels. Tune in for accurate weather and insight as you plan your day or just want updates on future forecasts .
Best weather app and great for Florida weather and hurricane season and air quality and even forecast outlook and everything! Great job and keep up the great work! I’m a panhandle weather user completely sold on this!
This is a great app and I highly recommend it for anybody that is looking for local weather updates in the Florida Panhandle!
