Detailed and accurate
I have not tried a whole lot of weather apps, but I did read about several before choosing one. The reason I tried this one is first, that it is free. Second, it is detailed with many options and as far as I can tell, seems very accurate. I love all the little animations that it adds for effect. Like showing the windmills spinning according to how fast the wind is blowing, and showing the sun moving across until it hits the area that it currently is at in the sky. There is a map of the area at the bottom that has several options for viewing such a satellite and radar. You can add and delete cities and move them around as you like. It gives a 10 day forecast. And a beautiful picture to go with each city. For a free app, this one is very impressive. And the advertisements that are inevitable with a free app, are non-intrusive. They show up as a section of their own as you scroll down through the various sections of each city. So you simply scroll past them and it is no big deal. They do not interfere with viewing.

Travel the World Each AM, Plus Plan for the Day Where You Are
I’ve loved this app since I first downloaded it 5+ years ago and it’s become one of the first things I check before starting and planning my day. Not only is it extremely accurate, its stunning photos, animations and real-time effects allow you to visit locations around the world you might already know and love, just aspire to visit one day or may have clients, friends or family in. Quick tip: if you load your fave locations by order of time zones, west-to-east, you can zoom around the world simply by continuous swiping! As an aspiring world traveler, it helps inspire me, season-to-season. Also, the satellite maps allow you to explore regions as you check-the-weather there. Perfect for business or vacation travel planning. I’m rarely caught off-guard, thanks to Yahoo Weather!

Lying but trying
I’ve had this app for a few years and I have to say that if you’re reliable & loyal to this app for accurate weather, (girls) you’ll ultimately end up covering your hair from the frizz zombies due to a lack of knowledge about the actual forecasting. Because this app has nothing accurate about it. Except for what kind of moon there will be. And what time the sun rises and sets. That’s it. I’ll check it before I ride my motorcycle and it will say zero chance of precipitation, and it will be raining on my Fing head. Zero chance of rain means no clouds. For a thousand miles. Period. Find a different app. Or suffer from the frizz zombies
