The weather channel finally had an app that was good and they had to screw it up again. Revert the app back to the way it was prior to February

To correct a problem on broadcasting

New Yorks Governor is not named Nancy. She is Kathy Hochul. Who is Nancy Hochul? I expect better from The Weather Channel.

On the 8's and Local Weather not working

5.0
Since Wed March 1 the Local Weather has said Temporarily Unavailable and the Local on the 8's is showing the same weather report everyday. I tried resetting the Direct TV box but wanted to know if you knew that this is whats been broadcasting for over a week. I watch your channel ALL the time.

User's recommendation: Good information.

Problem with TWC app

4.5
Update by user Mar 05, 2023

I received a canned answer which indicated that my issue had NOT been underdtood.

Original review updated by user Mar 05, 2023
You did not understand my question. You are using inconsistent colors on your weather radar. Bright pink is mixed precipitation on the app, but is freezing rain on TV. Purple is freezing rain on the app and mixed precipitation on TV. Why don't you use the same radar colors in both the app and on TV? This inconsistency caused confusion during the ice storms in February in Michigan, where I live. Seems like poor quality control on your part.

User's recommendation: Be patient. TWC may try to provide a canned answer without really understanding the issue.

Ferrel cows

3.7
Stephanie abrams and partner did short segment on ferrel cows in New Mexico. Helicopter was going to go out shoot cattle. Stephanie and partner had no idea what a ferrel cow was and just laughed at whole story. Unacceptable. If you go back in hx its not the cattles fault he ended up like this. Ranchers were against praise them. Not impressed with twc coverage attitude and definitely not impressed with NM and their governor There should have been better way handle

Incorrect information broadcasted to public.

TWC announced during an actual Weather Emergency, in DFW that four (4) Eighteen (18) wheelers have been blown over in Bloomdale, Tx. There is No Bloomdale, Tx. It was at Bloomdale Rd. Exit on Interstate 75 North of McKinney, Tx. Presumption- You cannot use post it notes. Really - There should be something called fact checking. I would like a response. Bloomdale, TX

Unsatisfactory

I called the weather channel, the lady was very nice, but told me that the only way that I could get my problem resolved was through the Internet. Im an old guy and dont like to use the Internet and would rather speak to someone.

Lack of coverage area

February 28, 3023 on AMHC (Cantori's program) Vermont and New Hsmpshire were not covered despite Abrams reporting the larger part of the snowstorm is north of Boston. Instead, the reporter on Boston harbor talked about the slush in Boston and it's the ideal time to salt the roads. Why does Weather Channel no longer cover VT as it used to years ago? Regulatory issues of some sort? I do not work for the media. I just miss VT and NH reporting because if many friends and relatives there.
