WKYT FirstAlert Weather Positive Reviews
Good weather broadcast!We’ve watched the WKYT weather team several times a day since moving back to Lexington 9 years ago. I took meteorology as an elective in my engineering curriculum and have been very interested since. I experienced the April ‘74 tornado outbreak while at Ft Knox raising my awareness for severe weather. Chris and Jim are a delight being local, competent, and confident. Ally is a lot better than Megan. I thought poor Megan was about to cry. If I could tell Ally one thing to improve it would be the definition of a period at the end of a sentence. Her monotone run-on sentences are very noticeable. Keep it up Weather Team..Joemama522Version: 5.2.302
AccurateIt is so good to see the accurate weather forecast that y’all put on every day. Not only is it on tv I have the app where it is available on my phone. Knowing the weather is very important for me. It is right on the money as far as accuracy. I can’t imagine life without it. THANK YOU Charles Turner. !-!.K--Dog !Version: 5.10.500
This app is a wasteThere is never any audio on the weather alerts on this app except for the commercials. You just end up seeing weather maps roll by with no comments..Toes1961Version: 4.10.2700
Something’s changedWhat happened to the voice notifications? Not only that, but I don’t even get a written alert notification anymore for severe weather. All my notification settings are turned on. I like this app, but I miss the alerts..ChelojeloVersion: 5.10.400

FactBetter than most free weather apps…but .. forecasting the weather for Harlan County is, at best…a guessing game…no matter who is doing the forecasting.Coalminer_1951Version: 5.3.901
Forecast Videos LackingThey’ll occasionally post videos from earlier in the day with outdated information. The website is updated more often..OoRyan42oOVersion: 5.10.500
Bad ChangesThe app keeps getting worse. It used to be great. The new app is really bad. The past-now-future feature is totally worthless on the new app. Map now black background or all white!!!.Oib46Version: 4.10.501

Review of wkyt weather appI love the way this app notifies me and then with one click it takes me to the radar!!.Sanibel womanVersion: 5.4.910
App works / Too many TEMU adsThe app itself functions as expected. However, I’m tired of seeing ads from whatever TEMU is with women’s breasts all over the place. It’s ridiculous!
Please remove them..EXiSTiNCEVersion: 5.12.705

GenericEvery weather app i’ve installed looks the same. Layout generic with dew/humidity run together. Not as advertised. Start page same for 2 other apps..Soon to not be a google fanVersion: 5.13.806

WKYT FirstAlert Weather Negative Reviews
New changes are awfulI use this app multiple times daily and it has been perfect. But now if you want to watch a 30 second clip describing how the weather is going to change, you have to watch a 30 second ad first - and every ad is for Morehead for some reason. Then, once you get through that, the sound on the weather video doesn’t work even though it worked for the ad. They also made the app much uglier. Very disappointed with these changes..Fmmobl01Version: 4.5.1800
Only two starsIt’s not up-to-date most of the time and gives inaccurate information. it can be pouring the rain at our location and show that there is no rain on the radar. The temperature is always different from the forecast on the TV, or on our own temperature gauge at our house, etc..
I understand that that are variables @ different locations…..In town ResidentVersion: 5.12.705
Hate the new changes!Have used this app for a long time now and loved it. But I hate the recent changes. The home screen used to give radar, current temp and the week’s weather at a glance. No more—that’s gone. And there are now so many ads you have to search for true weather data. Definitely NOT an upgrade! Please take some of these ads off and restore the good home page..KYWXgirlVersion: 4.6.1500
Current Radar is covered up by colored boxes.Recently the radar has been cluttered by an overlay that frankly is a nuisance. I only want a clear radar fast as a truck driver without needing to push a button to put in motion. Putting it into motion and needing to pause at just the right place to get current information is not working for me..SavvylassieVersion: 5.7.301
Go back to the old style!!!I have always loved this app, but this update is terrible. It’s focused around ads more than the weather and for the life of me I can’t even find where it shows the current temperature. All I can find is what the hourly forecast is. My opinion, but they took something that wasn’t broken and tried to fix it......and now it’s broke!.Kfed118Version: 4.6.1500
DisappointedThis app is misleading. It is nationwide and setup to make money for each tv station that uses it. The local stations don’t report the weather on the app. It is coming from some source out side the state. Very misleading. Totally used for making money for the stations and very little concern is given for the weather. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP! Unless you don’t mind watching ads. And getting poor weather forecast..B womblesVersion: 5.1.601
Fix This AppHas been my preferred weather app for a long time. However, more than half the time now when I open the app, it says there’s a network connection problem. Only way to clear this erroneous information is to completely shut down the app and then open it again. Same thing happens on both my iPhone and my iPad. VERRRRRY ANOYING!
Please fix this so I don’t have to find a different preferred weather app..Rdh416Version: 4.8.301
CrashingI had this app for many years and now it keeps crashing I’ve deleted and re-downloaded it many times and updated it as well but I still can use this app, it won’t even open. I click on it and it takes me to the WKYT blue page them crashes making me go back to my home screen. Finding a new app if problem don’t fix..Fancy truckVersion: 4.10.2700
Pesky notificationsAds everywhere, slow to load probably because of all the ads, you get unless notifications at all hours. I guess at least you can look at the radar and get a better idea of what the weather will do than the forecast they give you on TV, it hardly ever does what they are saying will happen at my house.M13697AHVersion: 4.6.1500
InaccurateI gave it one star because zero stars was not an option. It will show 10% chance of rain on the daily but if you look at the hourly for that day it may show a 90% chance in five hours. Hard to plan on the farm with that kind of lying..27sucksVersion: 5.0.900
Needs home screen workThe home screen should immediately display the temperature without scrolling, like it used to. Now after the most recent update I can’t find the temp at all and I hope when they fix that they revert it to the old home screen style..MrslaksVersion: 4.6.2101
Too many adsI’ve used this app since it came out. But now after this last update you have more ads pop up and details of weather. It’s confusing and this new update was not worth it. I also work at a golf course so I need a good fast accurate weather app. This Was it..Have to pay too muchVersion: 4.6.1500
They made it terribleLatest update to the app makes it hard to read. Ads are the majority of the screen. Previously all info was on initial screen; now you have to scroll & search for temp, humidity, etc. Was the best weather app around; now it’s just terrible. Not user friendly at all..Myself 22222Version: 4.6.1500
Do Not Waste Your Time With AppRadar does not work. As I type this, it is pouring the rain outside and the radar shows no precipitation. They just updated the app and it does not work anymore. Going to delete and find a new weather app. Don’t waste your time with this one..KanTuckVersion: 4.7.401
New update is badThe new updated app is bad. Way too many ads. You have to scroll down to find the traffic report now. Don’t like this update and will find another app to use. Should have left well enough alone...very disappointed!!!.Msla runnerVersion: 4.6.1500
Horrible UpdateThe new update is horrible. It takes at least 30-60 seconds for anything to show up when I open it. I can’t even find the “Traffic” option anymore. It’s bombarded with ads. Not a fan..USAMixerVersion: 4.6.1500
Change it back!!Since the latest update this app is awful. I used this app multiple times a day. But now it takes forever to load and it is completely useless to someone in a hurry..67coupeVersion: 4.6.1500
DisappointedThis app was wonderful in the beginning. Now it crashes often and I just have to delete and re-install it to fix it. The daily forecast is NOTHING like the news! I do like the radar though..Aidensmom829Version: 4.7.900
Where’s the traffic report?I used this app daily for weather AND traffic...now there seems to be NO traffic report that I can find- help!?!.CommuterCHVersion: 4.6.1500
Took many addsI wish WKYT was more concerned about providing a detailed weather forecast as much as they are filling the page full of advertisements.They wont except my commentsVersion: 5.2.500
A LetdownSeems that more often lately that the Doppler radar is MIA when something is actually happening. Thanks for nothing..@bodhilensVersion: 4.10.501
No improvement!!!The previous version was so much better than this "improved" version. Difficult to get the info I want. Whoever made the decision to use this new app is simply mistaken..Step3542Version: 4.10.1300
