That's a tough question to answer. Apple has their own, built-in Weather app, with edge-to-edge graphics and subtle, elegant animations. However, it's still decidedly on the simple side. Since weather apps have become something of a playground for great designers and developers these days, there are many excellent, yet very different alternatives to be found in the App Store. The toughest part is choosing between them. If you need help deciding, these are currently our absolute favorites!</p> <p> </p> <h2>Dark Sky</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/best-weather-apps-iphone' title="Best weather apps for iPhone"><img src='

?itok=9O8dhQLZ' />[/url]</p> <p><strong>Up to the minute precipitation info</strong></p> <p>Dark Sky does one thing better than the rest, and that's precipitation. If you live in a temperamental area in terms of rain or snow, you need Dark Sky. Of course you get other things too, like daily and extended forecasts, and gorgeous map views. Just add your locations to Dark Sky and opt in for precipitation notifications for the areas you care about and you'll never be caught without an umbrella again. Dark Sky also features support for the Today view and Apple Watch.</p> <ul><li>$3.99 - <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dark-sky-weather-radar-hyperlocal/id517329357?mt=8&at=10l3Vy&ct=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Download Now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>AccuWeather Platinum</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/best-weather-apps-iphone' title="Best weather apps for iPhone"><img src='

You get temperature and feels like data, up to the minute precipitation data, forecasts for almost an entire calendar month, and much more. If there are certain aspects of the weather you don't care about, AccuWeather lets you customize exactly what you see. You can also opt in for severe weather alerts via push notification.
