“Here is link to the good OLD, original Intellicast!”

Tamara P.
4/2/19

I ran across this in my desperate attempt to find the "old" really good Intellicast that pinpoints storms down the street with the "pan and zoom" feature and I found it. http://www.hurricane-tracker.org/Local/WxMap.aspx?latitude=39&longitude=-97&zoomLevel=4&opacity=1&basemap=0014&layers=0039. Also, from this link, once in, you can navigate through all of Intellicast's views. You just have to access it through their hurricane tracker. I was so happy to have found this because I relied heavily on it!

“IBM Flops with Intellicast”

Noticeable decline in quality since IBM got involved. Seems like everything IBM gets invoved with turns into a disaster. An example is the Phoenix pay system for the government of Canada. Check it out for yourselves.

They just took down the only good remnant of the whole IBM - the old Intellicast animated radar from WSI@ http://96.8.93.198/ If anyone knows where a bootleg or good radar site is please let us all know! WGN is the closest I've found but they've bloated & sold out their website too. Are all these companies so desperate for cash and clicks they can't even put a good simple page out?

This new radar map is hard to navigate. Too many clicks and searching for the way I'd like my radar map to look like. Once I set the map up and saving preference's, the next time I open it up It wasn't saved. Start all over again. I'm guessing the old mighty dollar had something to do with the change. Will definitely be using a different radar site until they come to their senses and change it back.

You ruined a user friendly site I depended on. I particularly miss historic averages which were amazingly useful when planning what to pack when I traveled. I am shopping for another site. It's really too bad. The temperature and likelihood of precipitation graph often don't even show on the 10 day graph. You totally trashed the best weather site ever.

I feel 1 star is to much. It does get worse, 0 star! Really enjoyed the old intellicast website. Do not understand why it was changed to something so terrible. Pop ups all over, very slow, hard to navigate, maps sucks, type in town it sends me somewhere completely different. Not a fan I'm switching to another site! I want the old intellicast back!

I found Intellicast.com YEARS ago and until recently loved everything about it until they switched to underground or whatever the hell they are calling it. I for one WILL NOT be using this! They have a link that says Intellicast Maps... but hardly any of the maps I used are there and it doesn't allow you to click on an area to bring up that local radar either. I just don't understand why they would have such a RADICAL change... advertisers - take note! I'd be asking for data analytics because I'm sure their number of users will be dropping DRASTICALLY! Signed, a very frustrated Intellicast.com user

I can not believe what a pile of crap this site is now. I have used intellicast for years without any issues. I log on today to check out the current weather conditions and the site a horrendous mess. There is no simple way to locate the radar... after 10 minutes of trying to find it, the map that does load looks like something a toddler finger painted. There is no clear graphics at all. Why on earth would you ruin a perfectly functioning website?

Once upon a time there was a site called Intellicast. You could pinpoint your local weather down to the street you live on. You could see where the rain stopped or started. Now it's just a memory or legend. So sad! I will not carry on with Weather Underground, ancient DOS looking crap!

The original Intellicast maps and weather were very good and always loaded without issues.
The new direction using Weather Underground is pathetic. The maps do not load as shown and the options are a mess. Why the change from a very good site to one that offers confusion and regardless of the requested input of state, New York it goes to California. Someone in Intellicast needs to look at the views and fix the mess. Also I do not need ads overlaying the views.

I gave up on the new version that is designed so poorly and takes so many clicks it simply is not worth keeping in my bookmarks. Very disappointed when a change goes to the worst. It use to be great now its not worth looking at. Please bring back the old version!

This new site is terrible. Screens don't even attempt to load ( Maps, Radar, 10 Day) The site is clunky and hard to navigate. I loved Intellicast. This new site is awful. I will be searching for a new weather site. The new site is a result of fixing something that didn't need fixing. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Is there any website that has a weather program like Intellicast or even close? This is the most disappointing thing. If it were just anything close I could live with it. But underground should do just that. Bury it and bring back the intillicast actions to use. Heck, I would pay for it monthly or yearly. This was stupid

I have used Intellicast for years, the best site every, especially the radar, Everything you needed to see in one easy place, not it is ALL Gone. Thanks for taking away a perfectly good site and replacing it with and site that cannot be used.

Talk about Fu@#ing up a junkyard, how hard is it US Government? Sell out to the lowest bidder? Again?

Why should I want an up to the minute, high density interactive weather map? Oh that's right, I'm supposed to be a victim, sorry, I forgot...

I used to be able to go right to my town (area code) and check my local weather past present and future. But now there's no way to do that anymore. Change isn't always for the better...

Loved the old Intellicast, now with Wunderground it is horrible. Why take something functional and turn it into a useless site? Well, it's all about the ads of course. Have to find a new go to weather site.

This is HORRIBLE now, and I'm so bummed out. I used this site every day and now it's worthless. So sad. What a waste of a weather site.

Why did you destroy the greatest weather site ever? I feel like I lost a great friend that I visited daily. Please bring back the old Intellicast with the great weather map. Very disappointed. Have no use for Wundermap.

This site was my go-to and they ruined it. The interactive map is tiny, you have to work too hard to find what you need. Used to be so good! No more. On to Weather.com or whoever else does weather. Too bad.

So many things about this site suck that I do not know where to start. Most of all it will not save location or prefs. This is not weather it is an ad campaign that is so BUSY that there is no time or screen space for the weather. Slow Slow Slow because of all the ads loading. I understand where ads fit in the business but is this nan AD SITE or a WEATHER SITE? Looks in every way an ad site. How about being reasonable?

How ridiculous to ruin the best weather maps and site out there? Wunderwhatever ruined the most useful site. Not only is this stupid but it's also dangerous. We had a tornadic event about two weeks ago and was trying to get info and radar on where it was and found that intellicast was bought out or whatever and is no longer around and instead this totally useless other site is now there. Really needed intellicasts radar mapping to find out where to go! This is stupid and dangerous!

Intellicast had it all. This new site can't even pulls up a decent 10 day forecast. WU is totally garbage.
