While not GRW with different features, its something for people that want free street level radar!

I don't like it. It's pretty much useless if weather is over you. There should be some sort of transparency option for the radar.

Maybe I'm going crazy, but it looks transparent to me. I can see both the radar and the map perfectly.

Now I have it working. It's okay, I suppose. I guess I'm use to more user friendly products that offer more features...

it will get down to the concrete of our driveway... the house you can't see. Overall... its about time for the 'street' level radar... All of our local stations had use WELL before TWC.
