Carrot and Dark Sky

I use the Weather Channel, Dark Sky & BeWeather. I'm thinking about adding Carrot Weather in there.

Carrot is accurate and gets lots of updates. The Apple Watch complication is great, too.

Wunderground and NOAA

I use Weather Underground. It works well, has a nice interface, and has proven to be accurate (well, as accurate as they get, still not perfect).

One thing I really like about Weather Underground is you can set up "Smart Forcasts", with weather parameters (other apps might have this too, not sure). For example, I have a custom profile set up for sailing. I tell WU the parameters for good sailing weather (temperature range, wind speed range/direction, chance of rain, etc), and it makes a graph that shows the best and worst times to go sailing, based on my preferred conditions. You can set them up for running, cycling, whatever you want. It creates an easy-to-read graph, so I don't have to look at 4-5 different areas of the app to figure out if conditions will be good enough. Tall bar on the graph = go sailing, short/no bar = stay home.

Storm is the best I've found. Have been using it for awhile. Lots of options.

Agreed!

I prefer Weather Mate because it a free weather app for iPhone/iPad and it provides accurate forecast without a delay. It has a satellite/ radar Map, travel planner, NWS radio and a collection of widgets/themes to customize the home screen. I recommend that you install this app and check its features yourself...

I seem to have become a collector of Weather Apps and am downloading Weather Mate right now... Will let you know after I've checked it out!

Same here. What's the difference in the free vs pro version? Just the ads?

 

[TripleOne]

I use the stock Apple weather app.

I think the difference is just the ads. I'm a bit underwhelmed with it... we had rain showers pass through yesterday and it missed it... so we'll see!

Lately I've been using Fresh Air

Based on some of the comments in this thread, I installed Storm, and so far it's great. I love how smooth the radar forecast moves (the clouds don't seem choppy as it goes through the future time).

Wunderground is my preferred. I don't care for AccuWeather. I use Carrot on my Apple Watch bc the Wunderground app won't load.

The most recent WU update has fixed that. Can still be slow to refresh at times but it does load now.

Yea I saw that. I've deleted Carrot and am back to WU. I honestly don't use weather on my AW much.

Old habits are hard to break. I used Weather Bug on WP & Android and I was happy to see it available for my upcoming 6s+. I'll probably try some of those mentioned here but I know Weather Bug so familiarity breeds contentment.

I use dark sky; tells you minute to minute when precipitation will start/stop and is very accurate.

I'll give WU a try. I keep a complication on the watch for weather, but don't often load the app itself.
