Then they updated it and ruined it. The inserted advertising that comes into play a 15-30 second spot whenever you go between items. Also changed the forcast screen to put in a billboard. Junked it up as well.

After posting a miserable review of the app in the app store, I deleted the app and installed weather bug. Not as nifty, a good map, forecast all in one page, no advertising and free.
Ditto on the Weather Channel - after the update it began crashing while loading, etc. I've dumped it too. Now using weather bug too.
