KSL Weather

Why in the day to day view does it auto open todays date stuff? I don’t go to the 10 page to have it auto open it days details. If I want that I should have to click on it. It’s a stupid feature. If people ant it, it should be a setting. Not mandatory.

I’m currently sitting on the water in 20-30mph winds. The forecast was light clouds and 5-10 for the wind. It still shows 8mph as the current wind and sunny as the forecast. I have gotten stuck too many times because this app is so far off on its forecasts. Do not use it to plan anything ever.

I have used this app from about the time it was originally released (10 years ago?). It’s always been good and accurate data that I use many times every day. Lately, however, it has gotten to be just a giant KSL money grab from “Sponsored by” companies like Whipple Plumbing and RC Willey. If you open the app to look at something and then minimize it for a moment to answer a call or look at another app, it makes you wait for the long, annoying sponsor to show up on the startup page all over again. It’s like I had closed the app and restarted it. It lasts for about 5 seconds before useful information starts to load, but that is an eternity in the age of instant data. I just finally moved it off my Home Screen and buried it in a “References” folder on my third screen over. You know the spot. The one with cobwebs and the MySpace and Sears app. I’m just going to use Apple Weather for now and try other apps until I find one that doesn’t waste my time. I feel really bad for the hard working business owners and their employees that are spending a large amount of their advertising budget on this. Right now I have just been repeatedly seeing poor Whipple Plumbing while I’m mad for waiting to open an app that is already open. Sorry Whipple (and KSl). I’m associating your name with waiting in standstill traffic while there are quicker routes to take.

Good app. However, after last update the local section which I always used disappeared. What???? Bring it back please.

I usually only look 24 hours out on the forecast, and it’s generally been completely inaccurate. Forecasting rain when it’s snow, forecasting snow when there ends up being none, forecasting sunny and it’s rainy. I know weather forecasting isn’t an exact science, but this is pretty silly.

The app seems great so far but I only just downloaded it. KSL has been the most accurate for local weather and I was hoping to toss my default weather widget in exchange for a KSL one. Unfortunately, they haven’t made a widget yet but I hope they’ll make one soon. Otherwise, I might just offload it and continue to use the internet browser to pull it up. Or stick to my not-so-accurate accuweather widget.

With the last major update to the KSL Weather app, it gave options for 6 and 24 hour forecast through the radar map. These maps show completely different weather patterns for the same time stamp. KSL, this is a reputational hit. Fix it please.

Had this app for at least 10 years. Now I watch local news and compare to my app and lately I intermittently don’t get any clouds or rain on my map even when I’m in clouds and rain. What happened? Can’t trust for travel planning anymore. Update: Now posting error message on GPS location regularly.

My radar just randomly turns off. I have to reload the app to see the storms. If I move the map at all, or have it open for more than 2 min, it just disappears. It’s annoying.
