Firefox Mobile for Android keeps freezing/ hanging up on the NOAA Weather site local forecast page and some others, forcing me to remove and reinstall the phones battery in order to unfreeze the phone. This can happen two or three times a visit anyone know why this happens?

I can reproduce a hang on the NOAA desktop weather site using a Motorola Razr using Firefox for Android 27. However using Firefox 28 or newer I don't see this hang.

If you want to check for your self try installing Firefox Beta from the Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta
