    The Accuweather app, for free, gives you awesome features that you may have to pay for in several other apps. The interface isn't as sexy as some of the other ones, but it has full forecasts, multiple cities, and even radar maps with animations, and it all works very well!

    I actually like the Fahrenheit (paid version) weather. It has a free one but you get more features with the pd. an it's only 99c

    For just radar I use StormTrak. It is awesome. For general weather I use MyCast and eWeather HD. I am a weather freak and live in the midwest. With a lot of tornados in the spring and summer, I can track storms easily. Currently I have 5 weather apps on my iPhone.

    I've always been a fan of WeatherBug. It does everything I need it to and the forecasts have been pretty accurate for me.

    Ditto on WeatherBug. I had it on my Blackberries & Android phones before I had my iPhone.

    I use Weather Underground.

    I used BerryWeather (which used Weather Underground for its data) on my BlackBerry Storm and really liked the accessibility to neighborhood weather stations for current condition.

    Good Luck

    I use Weather Live. It's good but two things bother me: Won't display temperature with a minus sign and it won't update automatically. I've found it hard to find a perfect weather app.

    I've downloaded 8 or 10 apps and none are just what I want. I also had BerryWeather and to me it was perfect. So far none of the iPhone apps I've found measure up to it.

    Never used BerryWeather. I use WeatherBug and it works well except for the rainfall measurements. Even in a flood it says 0.0"?

    I spent several hours today downloading some weather apps most were free but I did buy a couple. Depending on what you are looking for these may or may not interest you.
    My favorite is the Weather+ for which I paid $.99. It has the most features that can be customized. There are widgets that you can select from that provides temp, date, current weather and various forecast formats. The background is also one of the best I've seen. It has pictures that have motion such as water on a waterfall. I know this doesn't interest everyone but I have unlimited data and I'm home with broadband 75% of the time so it works for me. It is 4* with almost 15,000 ratings.

    Another was the Fahrenheit Weather which is $.99 and has the temp on the app icon so you can easily see what the temperature is without opening the app. It's clean uncluttered and gives you an 8-day forecast. It has a 4+ rating with 1600 ratings.

    On my wish list is the NOAA Hi-Def Radar for $1.99. If you want to see real-time high resolution map this could be what you are looking for and it also gives the current conditions and forecast. It is almost a perfect 5*.

    Another on my wish list is the NOAA Radio for $.99 which is an app that provides the actual weather radio alerts. Once purchased any updating is free for life. A pretty good bargain for 99 cents.

    For radar I use Radarscope a bit pricey for some but depending on features as for radar it can't be beat.

    You can get alerts via The Weather Channel's app... or their free alert service will send email or text messages... or the MyCast app has alert subscriptions available... and there are lots of other free & subscription based apps & services as well. I use MyCast, and WeatherChannel's email alerts - most of the time, I get my local warnings at the same time if not before the local TV stations & radio stations run their alerts.

    With the weather apps, I have found with the ones that I have reviewed that it really depends what you are looking for. Lots of information? Clean interface? Ease of use?

    My "go to" weather app is My-Cast, but there are some other ones that I use for more detailed information. I have yet to find the "perfect" app that has just the right mix of easy on the eyes user interface, ease of use, and quantity of information available.
