Winter and roads

This app used to be a very useful app for winter driving in Iowa, now it is near worthless. It is snowing and icy in most of the state but shows no weather conditions for the roads. Yet the web based version shows snow and ice covered roads. Please fix it!!!!

Happy new year

Love the new update with the live stream

Accurate conditions are great

Nice one.

No traffic in iowa

But it helps if by chance chicago gets evacuated!

Very nice.

Great app.

Good app

Nice and easy to use application.

Alarming!!

I got this to help me keep track of driving conditions and it appears that it may do the job. One warning however- the first night I had it on my phone, (which was unfortunately by my bed), it gave off a VERY loud alert signal, at 4:00 in the morning, that there was a possibility of severe weather about 14 hours later. I think I figured out how to disarm the raucous alert thing, but it certainly blew me right out of bed at 4 a.m..
