User Reviews and Ratings
★★★☆☆Great until hourly precip went away
This has been my go-to weather app for years. I have found KAKE predictions to be more accurate than other local and national sources. But sometime recently, an update removed the hourly likelihood % for precipitation, which I had found to be quite helpful as an estimate. Bring it back please!
★★★★★Great app
The app works great and I really like the notifications of weather alerts that talk.
★★★★☆Some problems
I guess this is a pretty good app. My main concern with it is I will get a notification that says additional information from KAKE first alert. But then it doesn’t say anything else. So I go to the app and there’s nothing new there either.
★★★☆☆Bearnt
Their weather predictions are hit or miss, even for Wichita. Plus, they are not detailed enough about specifically where storm related weather will occur. On top of that, they send you notifications for no reason sometimes accept to maybe up their responses to their notifications.
★★★★★Good app…
Every app has their issues, but overall KAKE Weather is good, for the most part the weather is accurate, the alerts are on time and they have an awesome weather team - always catch Frank Waugh in the mornings.
