Weather & Clock Widget Android - Android Apps on Google Play

I have found PYKL3 Radar to be very accurate, it has a steep learning curve, designed with weather spotters/chasers in mind, but worth every penny.

PYKL3 Radar (USA NEXRAD/TDWR) - Android Apps on Google Play

If this is too much and a user is just looking for a standard 7 day forecast then Accuweather Platinum would be what i would recommend.

AccuWeather Premium, and I live in a part of what's referred to in the US as "Tornado Alley"
and it has served me well

This is what i use. It's the default Weather App on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 3GB SD version running on MIUI 8. It uses some sort of Accuweather API. Best thing is it changes color on my notification depending upon the weather condition.

AccuWeather - came installed on my Galaxy phone. Does the job.

Living in Tornado Valley, PYKL3 i mentioned above your post would become your best friend.
It was designed for the storm spotter/chaser crowd, and is used by EMT's, Fire Fighters and Police alike all over the US. Unlike most radars that are converted PNG's for the high Def look, that lose much data and accuracy, it is Raw data from the Radar, and extremely accurate.

Thanks, but AccuWeather is for early alerts, in the heat of the moment I have a Bearcat scanner, I got it last year and it
is a godsend its truly what I use once I shut down the PC and all major eletronics to save them from surges.
I have a power pack that I run it on. It's the BCT15 model.

Nice looking scanner and use of. I have a NOAA weather radio on battery back up, the app above on my Android, which can run until I lose cell "4G" signal, another app "scanner radio pro" by Gordon Edwards, which has access to police/fire feeds as well as National Weather Service, combined together I'm quite prepared for bad weather and emergencies.

Thats good to have (NOAA)
This BCT15 has NOAA realtime break in's. meaning no matter what I am listening to on the scanner if a "local" alert is issued to tunes to it automatically, that's potentially life saving for this area.

None.

Forgot to mention, I use MeteoAlarm.eu as well.

WeatherBug!!

weather & clock widget
it's the lightest weather and clock widget I have ever tested. I tested ~20 similar apps and this comsumes the least resources and has the best battery life

I prefer the forcast of accuweather but this app doesn't have accuweather built-in. The forcast is OK thouh

I use Weather Timeline - Forecast - Android Apps on Google Play
It's well designed

Dark Sky for Android.

I generally hate the UI of most weather apps I've come across; they tend to make you have to scroll a fair way down or swipe left and right to view useful information which annoys me.

Dark Sky rightly receives a lot of backlash for charging a £3 yearly subscription fee on Android while on iOS it's a one-time purchase but I'm willing to pay up if they're using said money to improve their service. That said I'd be open to using another weather app if it doesn't conform to the scroll/swipe criteria I mentioned above if anyone can recommend one.

I use Dark Sky as well. Another good one is Weather Timeline - Forecast - Android Apps on Google Play

However if you don't like scrolling maybe it is not for you. Dev is really good and it's nice for the radar. You can also use Dark Sky for the weather provider.

Using Accuweather or Google's weather prediction in the Google App.

The one in Windows10 , enough for me.

I use Pocket Weather, it's the best weather app I've used.
It gives all of the information I could want out of a weather app.

I dropped Dark Sky after my subscription ran out. It went from incredibly good to wildly inaccurate in the span of a few months for my area. I also came to realise I don't care enough about real-time rain alerts to justify paying for them.

Using The Weather Channel now.
