In general I like the app. It seems fairly accurate, as far as weather prediction can be. My problem that every few days, it won't reload/ update information, even when I pull down to refresh. Sometimes I end up restarting my phone, just to get the app working again. It's not my phone, since other apps are able to refresh. Anyone have any suggestions?

I have had this app since at least 2012 and haven't yet found anything better. I really like the radar maps and current temperature. Although, recently, the radar maps timing is a little slow. For example, it will be raining at my location but the radar shows that the rain has not arrived yet. Maybe that is normal, I don't know. The temperature is not the same as my in home weather station either. Weather Bug will says it is 90 and my weather station will say 83. Weird.

I have tried at least 8 to 10 different sites over the years. I worked in a national park and had to post the weather report for the day in the lobbies . Most more or less agreed with each other but I loved the layout and the availability of WeatherBug where it gives me the ability to narrow down what I am looking for. Sometimes all I want is the current temperature or the hourly forecast. Sometimes I need a 10-day especially if I am going to travel. WB has been my go to for at least 24 years.
