What users are saying

1. With the new format when you open it and click on weather there is nothing in the forecast page to show estimated snowfall totals.

2. Very disappointing.The app was better when the weather was highlighted.I use this app every day to check out local news and weather.

3. I wouldn't recommend.I started using their stand-alone weather app, but was told it had migrated into their new "news" app.

4. I can't easily view the weather the newest stories are no longer on top and it won't even open the correct story off and on.

5. I kept looking and found that if I went to the contact page at bottom was a 7 day forecast link where I could find this information.

6. I have never reviewed an app but this one is so bad I had to.I appreciate the great news coverage, especially local news.

7. Much better than the "other" prominent local news appHate the new app.

8. I dont want to have to click through a bunch of stuff to get to the 7 day forecast or in this case the 10 day which is not as easy to see the overall forecast for the week as it previously was.

9. Very disappointing.Went from being my favorite KC news app to my least favorite with one update.

10. I use to only use this app for my weather because the other ones so called improved there app also.

11. All I want is the simple layout of the original weather app.
