Weather channel is getting really annoying with world weather news. Stuff I don’t need filling my notifications 2-3 times a day.

Prefer a free alternative. Anyone have a good recommendation?

    Weather Underground for accuracy, down to your zip code. Accuweather if you want a widget.

        I mean if you are gonna pay for a weather app like WU, better put that money into Carrot Weather. Is literally the most fun a weather app can get, but yeah it costs premium money. It can be used for free though, but lots of features are missing.

    It’s a shame that Apple killed DarkSky. It was by far the best. It’s bullshit that most apps rely on as huge of an area as a zip code. We have public radar data, there’s no reason not to use that and get an even more localized accurate weather prediction.
