This app has become worthless. It does not open to the selected story from my notifications. In order to find what caught my attention, I have to remember the key words and search. My wife is on the iOS platform and has issues with that version as well. The weather no longer opens for her. She reinstalled it to no avail. On top of that, you have to click off a full-page ad to see whatever story does open. Very disappointing.

I use this app every day to check out local news and weather. With the new format when you open it and click on weather there is nothing in the forecast page to show estimated snowfall totals. 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. Really, the contact page???

I started using their stand-alone weather app, but was told it had migrated into their new "news" app. I have been getting non-stop notification pop-ups ever since, even after I de-selected every single option available. Instead I get force-fed their "newsfeed", like National Enquirer-quality sensationalism and Kangaroo Court reporting. So done.
