The Weather Network Reviews 143

The Weather Network's website was my go-to for years. Now it's a barely-recognizable hot mess. So cluttered, rife with useless drivel, videos you can't stop from playing, with the actual forecast - the main reason me and most others go to it - so hard to find and follow without a great deal of scrolling around. Buh-bye Weather Network! I'll be using Environment Canada from now on where you can see the forecast AT A GLANCE. Don't know why they tried to fix what wasn't broke, but: Epic Fail.

Horrible website revamp! So busy and all over the place.
It's just the weather report! Keep it simple, stupid!

PLEASE CHANGE THIS AWFUL NEW FORMAT BACK TO THE OLD ONE. PLEASE

Terrible! Who in their right mind developed this app and how did management approve it. Impossible to get a forecast without over scrolling and over reading. Prior to these changes, one could get daily forecast on first page and weekly as well. Now we need to scroll down and look for morning, lunch, afternoon, dinner, evening, night…..too much information and no concise quick information at the top of page. Will now get my forecast elsewhere!

New website is unusable. All people I know agree. So it's not just me being stupid.

This website just gets worse everyday. Now with background can barely see the important information. I've used the weather network since its inception and now I am looking for a different option for the first time if they don't change the format back.

This new format is not an improvement!

advantage over other sites which drew me in years ago (seeing previous weather) is gone. 'assistant' is as useless as the rest of them. cannot answer anything. i get desperate and ask 'tell me anything about the weather' and it crashes

They say they restored our favourites but all they did was add our last five searches. That was not restoring the option from the old website. It's clear the new format was designed to make more ad space available. When scrolling through lines and lines of what used to be available at a glance, there is a break every few lines for an ad, and the weather data on the screens is less than the advertising space. I am using a different website for my weather.

Please revert to previous format. Will not use this anymore after years of being my go to. Not easy to read at a glance to get all info I want without endless scrolling. Also had other locations saved at page top to quickly link to their weather forecasts, which was great.
Bad decision to adopt this newer version/look.

I can't believe management approved that design! What was the reason behind it? It seems like the BA and developers were unskilled. The site's reputation is ruined. This isn't just my personal opinion—I’ve spoken to many people to get their thoughts, and 100% of the reactions to the new design were 'horrible,' 'disaster,' and 'never again.' I received a few good website recommendations, where you can get all the information with just one click. No annoying slow scrolling, and no slow page refreshing

Don’t use anymore
If it ain’t broke don’t fix it
New format is garbage

The Weather Network's new format is an absolute disaster. Unfortunately, there is no lower rating than 1 star. What was once a simple, user-friendly layout with clear, accessible forecasts is now a chaotic mess. You have to scroll endlessly through confusing graphics, making it hard to find basic weather info. It's as if they prioritized flashy visuals over functionality. We come here for the weather, not to navigate a poorly designed interface. This so-called "upgrade" feels like a step backward. Hugely disappointing. Here's a suggestion. You had a 'beta' button before to showcase this mess. How about an 'original' button with the old format?

The new format for the website totally sucks! Why fix what's not broken? So many apps and webpages are doing this nowadays and it sucks bad. Just another stupid site I have to dump now. Long gone are the days when you take a glance at the coming weeks weather without having to scroll through down several pages for the same info you got on one page. Booooo weather network, I would fire your web designer!

New website is absolutely horrible. Bring back the old one ASAP.

Can't express how much I hate the new format. Looking for a ne provider.

the format is lousy why was the change , before it was easy you could see 7 or 14 days in a straight line at a glance instead of having to scroll down to get a week or whatever view , should have left well enough alone

Your new format is terrible. The former format provided simple, clear and quick overviews of the forecasts, while the new format contains way too much text and requires way too much reading and scrolling. Previously, The Weather Network was my main source for weather forecasts, but it will be Environment Canada going forward unless your changes are reversed. It is apparent that many other users agree with me.

I despise the recent website changes to the Weather Network . NO ONE wants to scroll down and down, and down to find a simple answer -- the WEATHER!
The straightforward, easily-visible **horizontal format** you abandoned was much more user-friendly and unencumbered by worthless info. Clearly, I'm not the only one who hates it!

Your new format is very difficult to read. The old version featured weather which could be seen at a glance because it was read from left to right. No scrolling down. The new format requires constant scrolling and the viewer forgets the forecast because it's confusing and the scrolling continues and continues and continues. Why fix it if it isn't broken? Come on Weather Network!!!
