Chief Meteorologist Kevin Lemanowicz and The Boston 25 Weather Team of certified meteorologists have helped develop New England's most accurate local weather app. Developed especially for New England, the Boston 25 Weather app provides the most accurate local forecasts, to keep you and your family safe. New England's most powerful local weather app includes:
Summary of Features:
- There is a new radar in the weather app that matches the radar found on other digital platforms and also includes future radar to provide you with a likely path and outlook of storms. The radar has 250 meter resolution, the highest available.
- New tracks - We added earthquakes and storm tracks as layers in the radar. Now you can track the location and magnitude of earthquakes as well for storms the speed, direction and type. Tap the “storm symbols” icon in the radar to see the list.
- Locally developed weather forecasts from the Boston 25 Weather Team. Select a specific location to see a local forecast. The app tells you which member of the Boston 25 Weather Team crafted the local forecast. The weather changes rapidly in New England, so forecasts from national apps pre-loaded on your device lack the local expertise when severe weather threatens. The Boston 25 Weather Team is focused solely on getting the local forecast right.
- Push alerts are FREE for more than 25 alert types including everything from blizzard warnings and flash floods to winter storm warnings and tropical storm alert types.
- Now you can scroll through the home screen to access most of what you need or want on one tab.
- Place a location pin precisely where you want it for a specific address or any position on a map. When saving a location you can name it exactly how you want it.
- The app works with identical features on tablet and handset.
- Additional items added seasonally
The weather app also has these critical benefits and features:
- The radar zooms down to your neighborhood or zooms out to check radar anywhere in the country.
- The app provides Location-Based alerts. While many other apps offer alerts based on your county, This app supports a more precise type of alert issued for the most dangerous types of weather threats. More precision means you get alerts that matter to you, not false alarms.
- Current conditions, hourly and daily forecasts for any location you enter.
- High resolution satellite cloud imagery
- Ability to add and save locations
- A fully integrated GPS for current location awareness
- Additional items added seasonally
*Data and alerting available for the United States only.

Always 💯spot onI wish it had more detail about the town of Arlington otherwise I SHIRI Kieth and the rest of the team are always spot on with forecasts I love being alerted with their weather app love all the forcaststers.GigglèsVersion: 5.5.804
Needham weatherEasy to read for my home town as well as other cities. Some other websites are confusing..Maude1941Version: 5.1.604
Wish they had a widgetWould be nice to create a widget that was half forecast, half radar. I currently use one from someone else, but I like this better I think a lot of people would want that..Sbond1963Version: 5.6.506
Too many commercialsThere are way too many commercials and advertisements that you need to watch before the weather videos. Many of the advertisements are longer than the actual weather reports..Cyclingisgr8Version: 5.1.604

School ClosingsDisappointed that school closings disappeared..Chuck754Version: 5.0.802
HorribleThe video playback is horrible. The three minute ad at the beginning seems to work fine, but the actual report itself lags and just stops playing altogether. If the greed would match the actual usefulness it might be a great app..Jma00a1Version: 3.2.1
Update/reformat complicated appBefore the most recent update I loved this app and used it multiple times a day. I also used it for humidity percentage, which is no longer displayed. Looking for another weather app.Dude_kid_guyVersion: 4.7.1002
Promotional advertising annoyingDisappointed that promotional ads on the Forecast page would not allow me to exit without granting permission to accept further soliciting. Uninstalled the app..Aggressive adsVersion: 3.2.2
Fox 25Got the app as soon as I heard about it! Very productively designed and helps me stay updated with what's ahead! Definitely a handy app to have..Drewster2000Version: 2.7.5
Very intuitiveVery intuitive with live broadcast streaming, radar, etc. good quality..AndnomoreVersion: 2.7.6
Cannot change to FahrenheitI have gone through all the settings and cannot find a way to change this feature..Auntie loo looVersion: 3.3.3
OutstandingExcellent interface, simple to use, looks great.
A must have. 👍🏼.DocDanversVersion: 2.7.6
Annoying updatesApp is ok but don't use the alerts unless you want your phone to beep every 5 minutes to tell you there is 2" of snow coming..JuygngfhjVersion: 3.0.1
Solid, not great.App is solid, but could be great if a little cleaner. Somewhat chaotic. Also, I cannot hear audio on the forecast tab. It does work on the video tab, however. Very odd..Nicky DeVitesVersion: 3.2.2
App began crashing iOS 9.3.5App is crashing iOS 9.3.5 when trying to play forecast. This issue just began recently..JQMBP3_MAVersion: 3.2.1
Add featuresPlease add more features to the ap! It would be helpful to be able to open a day and see the predicted snowfall totals or a breakdown of the day (ie.morning,noon,night weather) was very hopeful when downloading since I always watch Fox 25 for weather..Qtcath143Version: 2.7.6

Boston 25 Weather Negative Reviews
Improve your weather videoWhat’s with the 1.5 day video forecast. Get with the competition and video standards. Provide Complete forecast with 7-day included. If you are trying to entice viewers to follow up with full news, not happening. 99% of viewers Want the full weather quickly, so viewers quickly switch to your Boston competition, 4,5,7,10 station websites to get a complete video.
Don’t understand your marketing department. “Tune in for the full forecast “ so uninviting ... You have full videos on digital format, just program it in. Simple!!.Jd11112Version: 5.1.604
Weather Radar is trashThe 24 hr radar and the 6 hr radar gives totally different readings for rain. When you check the radar for both at exactly the same time it gives different rain patterns..DonaldTrumpforprezVersion: 5.10.504
ReviewI would have given 5 stars but you keep asking for a rating over and over perhaps you should only pop it out once and stop begging.GeorgeKovalVersion: 5.3.600
Eats data plan for breakfast!Nice app but be careful with your data plan. I barely use the app and it took 5GB of data last month alone! Not sure why a weather app should use so much data..ENG-ASVersion: 4.10.800
Ad crazyI get that ads are necessary to support an app, but this app is more accurately ads with some weather news. Distracting and excessive ads.BraintreeLawVersion: 5.3.600
What gives?Your weather person on TV (and all other networks) say we are getting 6-8” of snow tomorrow but your ap says 1-3”!.Tap18Version: 8.4.901
WeatherLove Sherry but dislike all the ads..Dads Leave AloneVersion: 5.2.302
Bad layout, bad content, bad controls,decent forecast2 stars for the forecast but I’m Disappointed that:
1)I can’t read the forecast tab without a non removable social media ribbon a third of the way down, right in front of the words. If you scroll, then a pop up with a non-weather headline blocks the bottom third. It’s supposed to be a WEATHER app, I don’t need news rid bits from across the country, just my local weather!
2) why does video play when I’m READING the forecast tab? There’s no way to stop it without scrolling up & turning off, then scrolling back down( because video feed takes up 2/3 of the screen!) that’s what the video tab is for! If I’m not in that tab, I don’t want to see/hear video.
3) if you accidentally hit a link to a news story, there is no way to go back to where you were. No ‘Back’ option...you have to go to Home & choose the tab again, which re-launches the non-weather related video that you just turned off,plus the annoying ad!
4) I might not mind #3, if those link had relevant news, but they’re just snippets of news from everywhere. Not even local/national; they could be about an ice storm in the UK! Waste of space. If I wanted general news snippets, I would’ve kept the news app.
5) the map rarely shows any relevant data, like the rain/snow lines, & is not interactive or even a loop video to show storm tracking, but this is the Storm Tracker app?
A weather app should stick to the weather! I’m deleting this app..Tia RaeRaeVersion: 3.3.2
Cumbersome and a resource hogThis is a classic example of an app that can't do the one thing it's supposed to do well. It is a Weather app; all I want to see is the most recent forecast. Instead this app is constantly trying to sell you stuff and trying to get you to post to social media. They need to go back to the drawing board on this one..LynxiousVersion: 3.0.1
Do Not Update This App!I have always loved this app. I could open it and immediately see the 7 day forecast, and quickly change to another location to check on my folks. With the new organization I can not do either of these things easily or quickly!!!! I may have to find a new app. Put it back...please..NuAtThisVersion: 4.7.1002
Current version keeps crashing...Current version keeps crashing every single time I try to access the forecast (detailed description). Can view other things ok it seems, but I really want the forecast for this snow storm today. Not helpful..KokatosiVersion: 3.0.1
TerribleI hate this app.
Content is so poorly laid out.
Forecast videos never load and either trying to read the forecast or watch the forecast, the page freezes and you have to relaunch the app.
The add content is placed in such a way as it blocks the actual content.
The weather content isn’t updated as often as it should, especially on the weekends. It’s clear they just add on a few sentences to the already existing content without actually saying anything.
Overall, I’m better off using the New England weather rock- a.k.a. Looking out the window....Folly dogVersion: 3.3.3
New update killed this appThis was app horrible to start, but today’s update killed it completely. There is no quick way to check the weather, with out going trough multiple clicks and scrolls. I will give a month and if no fix I will uninstall..Coc clasher for 2 yearsVersion: 4.7.1002
Nothing has changed!!!I am so disappointed! You just did a bug fix update today 9/7/16 and my screen still freezes and bounces around like crazy. It's the only app I have that does this. I can't count on this app and I'll be deleting it for good..Mikemcc1957Version: 3.1.1
Awww Rats!!Really really liked the older format with the weekly forecast easily read and at my fingertips. This version, I’m not too keen on. Wish I didn’t update the app. Rats! Please reconsider some of the updates!.DubahMammaVersion: 4.7.1002
It kinda stinksAny alerts you want, you gotta pay extra for. You might as well stick with the weather channel app, it gives you more detail.DayanksVersion: 2.7.6
In accurate forecastsWith the exception of Kevin all the rest of these women forecasters are useless because they are so inaccurate and also none of them cannot be trusted. I’ve seen them screwed it up so many times and I don’t trust him..Rev JudeVersion: 3.3.2
ClunkyVideo doesn't work, but when it did the same ad played each time you started a new video. Clunky interface, slow to respond. Needs a complete overhaul..IPaditVersion: 3.2.1
Terrible updateLately the video portion of the app crashes after the ad, deleted the app and reinstalled but still doesn't work..MitchusmcVersion: 3.2.1
Expensive app. That really isn't free if you want alerts .Good app. To bad you have to pay $4.99 to get 98% of the alerts . I'm deleting it..DragonladyzzVersion: 2.7.6
Spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spamUpdate: every time I start the app, I get spammed! I thought I’d try again. You don’t listen. Goodbye for the last goddamn time!.Rclark9280Version: 5.11.503
Re-design terribleIt’s not that I don’t like change. Some changes are for the better and are welcome. The recent re-design is so darned non-intuitive, I really hate opening it now. Can’t see an hour by hour look at the day any more, I have not seen a remotely positive review since the major redesign. I pretty much hate it now. This is the very first review I’ve done on any APP, which says something about what it took to make me bother to spend this time providing this feedback. The old version was a whole lot more intuitive, but this one is all over the place... Hope you throw away the old code..JimInWroxVersion: 4.8
Very disappointingI saw this app advertised this weekend and I welcomed the prospect of getting reliable local weather updates from a local station. I downloaded the app this morning and it couldn't find my location, regardless of whether I used the location finder or manually entered my zip code. Back to the drawing board?.Essential HPVersion: 3.2.1
