What's your favorite weather app?

I am a big fan of MyRadar with the wind, rain and lightning notifications turned on.

Dark Sky
Bought by Apple so presumably will be integrated into the native iOS weather app in the future

I prefer the normal android widjet that comes standard. it autolocates me and provides a day and hourly change with winds

Apparently it's being absorbed into the closed Apple hive, and will no longer be available to the hoi polloi such as myself, who don't use Apple products.

It was Accuweather, and then they did a complete update of the App a few weeks ago....
I’m now back to Dark Sky. (Used to like Weather Underground)

I use Dark Sky, but I have to say, their accuracy has been ridiculously bad this summer (at least in my area).

I use Myradar the most of the various ones I have, because it loads the radar images the fastest. Weather Underground is ludicrously slow and seems always to exaggerate the potential for precip. Dark Sky looks cool, but I rarely use it, I think because you have to switch through so many screens to get the information you want.

Yeah I know.

It's not like you can't get NOAA date in a zillion other places though.

Most of what I like is the interface and functionality.

Bad, in that it doesn't accurately predict those pop up showers? I've been getting that here too but I think those are always hard to predict here in the summer.
