I don’t why the weather app was changed but it is really screwed up. I have used this weather to fish by for as long as I can remember and it isn’t worth a#%$@. It always amazes me how some people can screw things up when they just need to leave them alone. The old saying”If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” really applys. I quess it all boils down to money which is how most good things are screwed up

We were not aware that we had a weather app. Weather page yes, but an app no. And because you suggest we changed our page because of money, you are wrong and should not make baseless accusations without evidence.
Our camera finally failed after 8 years. Our upgraded camera cost 3 times what the old camera did, not to mention we added a second camera at another location. These cameras are far more sharp and focused than the previous one. We regret you do not like the upgraded page, but if you need a weather app, try Weather.com or something that serves your purpose. Ours was not to provide weather reports for fishing.

By the way, what is it that changed besides the camera? We welcome your feedback.

Excuse me for calling it an app. If you haven’t seen the difference then you haven’t paid much attention. You had the fishing table so I guess that wasn’t for fishing, it must have been for another purpose. The old one showed the weather at the time you pull it up. Now it goes to some other weather page that is worthless. You could pull up the hourly weather,wind stats, etc. you evidently never saw the old one. Too bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The camera is next to worthless. Wind speed, direction,etc are more vital. We don’t care what the lake looks like. In fact at 6 in the morning, you can’t see the lake anyway.

Mr. Reaves, I know the page well. Every page on this website was written and developed by me. I have never included a fishing table on the weather page. The information on the page may change because the provider (ie: weather.com, SJRA) information changed or became incompatible with our page. When the page opens, click the “Weather” tab to show the information you are looking for. It is not exactly what it used to be because the provider changed the format. The data displayed is information from the Harris County Flood Warning System weather gauges on the FM 1097 bridge. Other information can be displayed by clicking the links under the live image.
The camera feeds are intended for remote viewers to see the current conditions on the lake and what the lake looks like. The weather page was never intended to assist anyone actually on the lake. Our purpose is to promote Lake Conroe and the businesses it supports. There are several websites that will help fishermen on the lake. A good Google search should find the information you wanted our page to provide.
