WHAT MAKES THIS WEATHER APP DIFFERENT FROM OTHER APPS?
WE FILL IN THE GAPS
Our 200,000+ personal weather stations report the most localized weather conditions. The data that we collect from our user-owned weather stations fills in the gaps between the airport weather stations that other weather services rely upon to generate forecasts - meaning our data is generated from actual data points in your neighborhood.
INTERACTIVE WEATHER & RADAR MAP
The most interactive weather map on mobile allows you to select from different weather overlays including current conditions, animated radar, satellite, webcams and severe weather. Customize the map by selecting specific data layers or choose from the various map presets such as severe alerts.
CROWD REPORTING
Sky reports let you tell us if the sky conditions we’re reporting are what you're actually observing. If you see something different you can report the conditions you're experiencing for the benefit of other app users. Hazard reports allow you to report any hazardous road conditions you experience to help other people in your area.

One issue I really like the app but there is one persistent issue that keeps it from being at least a 4 star app. Every time I open the app it defaults to a weather station that is about 2 miles from my home. That would be nice other than the fact that I have my own registered station in my back yard. What if I'm out of town and want to check the conditions closest to my home? Fix that and we'll see how I feel.

You guys are amazing!! Well, I've been asked to rate this app again and it still remains to be an absolutely fantastic app to use. You would read this and think, Did they pay her to say this? Nah. This app needs not to pay me as I will never run out of good things to say about this app. Still end up being the one people ask in regards to the weather. I really don't know why they don't just download it for themselves haha! In any case, keep up the great work guys!! Solid fan here, and I won't be leaving anytime soon!!

Do you want pretty or do you want accurate? Weather Underground has been a goto for millions of people for a couple of decades - years before there was such a thing as a smartphone. I've compared the top weather apps in the play store side by side and WU is by far the most consistently accurate, with locally pinpointed alerts - when it says it will start raining in 2.25hrs you can pretty much bank on it. Sure, there are prettier apps but none as accurate and precise. I highly recommend! 👍👍👍👍👍 😎.

It's got some issues Used to love the site and then the app. Today it told me it was 54 degrees in my town the first 3 or 4 times I checked. It hasn't been that warm for at least a month. Finally it changed to 18 degrees. I travel and need to have accurate info on the places I'm going. Wish I could trust it, because I like the interface better than any other app I've found.

Stellar when it works Weather Underground has been my preferred weather source since before the Web was invented, and continues to be top-of-class for prediction and richness of data. The app has a well-designed UI and packs a lot of information into an easily-understood format. It also has a nice range of widgets for different home screen layouts. My only complaint is that from time to time the app will present invalid data for a few hours or even a few days. Not sure why--if they could fix this the app would be perfect.

Great app with poor search Not getting good results for my searches in Canada. The website returns the results that I expect but the application has much less. Searching for a ski hill? Mount, Mont- and Mont seem to give different results and some mountains do not even show up while they do on the website. Canadian postal codes also seem to not work. Otherwise I really like this application, the interface is simple and has the data I want without feeling cluttered.

Love it but.... Please for avid weather users make a widget that "a state" would fit in. I used weather bug for several years and before the revamp it had one. I had this widget on my home screen so while at work I could just hit the button on my phone and see the weather moving across the state. I don't want to have to touch the widget or go into the app and resize the map to see what is moving across my state. We like it at a glance. Not 7 or 8 steps to get to it every 15 mins when we're at work and a storm is approachi
pretty darn good nice design with a solar daylight feature is very nice, and a graphic probability of precip on the forecast graph is terrific. nicking it a star because they continue to publish bogus 'windchill' numbers, and sometimes they mislocate my in-home router by a mile or two... but everything else is great. paid for no ads, a bit pricey, but the quality is excellent and it syncs to all devices. nice.

Sorry about that. We're still optimizing our radar. If you'd like you can try our sister app Intellicast: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wsi.android.intellicast
Best and most accurate weather service I've been using the Weather Underground website for long as I can remember. I love that it provides professional weather services and is also community driven. It wasn't always as pretty as some of the other services of there, but the information was always the most accurate and complete. With this app and the widgets that are bundled with it, that has changed... It's beautifully designed and still has all of the information I've come to rely on.
Best interface The user interface is clean and attractive, all the information is available at a glance unlike the cluttered displays of other, better known weather apps. The widgets are sober and practical. Some anomalies though: accented characters within the city name are not visible, and the display flickers briefly when starting the app, showing some odd location. Otherwise easily the best weather app.
Crowd sourced LOCAL weather info. Still my only source for weather information. Localized and almost always accurate weather data. Sure, it's crowd sourced and automated, so there's room for errors. But when you have 100s or 1,000s of inputs, the occasional glitch still makes this 10 - 100 times more accurate than the local weather guesser on TV or the radio. And I enjoy getting the bigger picture so I can make up my own mind about what to wear, drive, or plan to do for the day or week. Love this app, and the Web site too.
I love all the features! There is so much information in this app. In the summer months, the pollen count is helpful. I love the map, graphs, statistics, sunrise/sunset and moonrise/moonset feature, not to mention the several day forecast. I also like the alert of storms and what time it is projected to come and end. The tropical storms feature is nice. I must be a weather nerd at heart since I look at it multiple times a day, sometimes.
Weather Underground Love the app. Was having widget issues with 1weather app (would not auto update). Switched to Weather Underground and have never had an issue. I do miss 1weather's widget features: 5-day extended (Weather Underground does 3 days) & easy to switch between extended, detailed, and hourly. What is the point of a widget if you have to click the widget to open the app to get it to refresh correctly? Would give 5 stars if WU had those same features, but otherwise WU auto updates as should and hyper accurate.
Gale warning? Really? I suddenly have persistent small craft advisories and gale warnings from Cleveland NWS, and I'm not even close to lake Erie. Don't think it's a NWS issue as other weather's apps aren't doing this. Cleared data, uninstalled/reinstalled. Emailed developers, no response. Awesome other than this issue. Developers...Are you listening?
Weather Underground Honestly, I truly believe this is the BEST weather App I've ever used and I've tried many others. With Weather Underground I actually get to participate. The Satellite and Radar images are terrific. One more thing, the Weather Underground App is Extremely accurate. When rain is called for at a specific time it's like right there, within 15 minutes either way it's raining. I really enjoy inputting what's happening at my home at any specific time. Thanks for the BEST Weather App out there.
Changing my rating... :( I've been using weather underground for years now and for years they've been the most accurate. However I've noticed that the temperature in the current weather is nowhere close to the hourly details. Today the current temp said it was 45 and the hourly said it was 33. It was way off. It was actually closer to 35. This isn't the first time, it's been happening almost everyday. Please fix. For now I'm adding another app to confirm current conditions with until this one is fixed. Please fix.
Best weather app I have used. Colorful design and accurate information. A note to those who are experiencing server issues: quit crying about how you can't connect to the weather server. You are being provided with free, accurate weather data in your pocket; leaving a pile of one-star reviews the size of Mt. Everest is indubitably insolent. The folks over at WU are trying to fix it, simmer down.
Good info as long as it updates I like the interface. It's easy to see the important stuff at a glance. For me, wind speed and direction are just as important as the temperature, and I like the quick access to the hourly forecast. However, a couple of times per week, WU won't update the weather report and all I can see is yesterday's information. I have to restart my phone to get updated information, but it's easier and faster to just deal with another weather app for a day.
Best local weather and radar I have been using weather undergrown since 2004. Can't beat the local Doppler when there is a really bad storm is approaching. You know within minute's when it hits your area. Shout out to all the peeps with their home weathering stations reporting on the site.
Tried them all, and THIS is the one! Over the years I've used Yahoo, AccuWeather Pro, you name it I've used it. None of them compare with the accuracy and the detail of Weather Underground. Great for weather nuts like me with a weather station at home ( I can see data from anywhere in the world using Wunderground on phone or PC) but also simple and ACCURATE for occasional weather reports and forecasts. 10/10
Weather Underground's recommendation fixed it Hey WU, the widget is broken again keeps crashing. Tried repeatedly uninstalling and reinstalling the app and widget. Probably the best weather app and accompanying Widgets, accurate and easy to understand with quick access to specific details (wind speed and direction for sailing) and even weather history. Now, if only I could use my Google Play credit to subscribe to the ad-free version.
Weather Underground April 12, 2016
Sorry about that. Google Play doesn't accept credits for subscriptions, it's their policy and we have no control over that. Great app but needs better widgets This app is useful, has a great user interface and is accurate. I use it for quick glances- "tomorrow is much cooler than today" - temperature and rain checks and easy to read hour by hour forecast. One issue and annoyance is the lack of a good widget integrated with a clock. Otherwise would be 5 stars!
Weather Underground January 9, 2016
We didn't remove it. Just tap on the current temperature circle/medallion on the home screen. Best of the bunch! I didn't like any weather app until I found this one. I compared this app to the top 5 apps available in the Play Store and this came out the clear winner. WU has the most accurate temp info, and best predicts the chances of precipitation. Of all the apps that I tried this also has the most useful widget options. It is sure to fit unto any size and layout of screen. I have used this on multiple devices and I am impressed!
Accurate Local Weather Info UK user. Update: Fabulous: increasingly accurate and integrates with my PWS. Original: I have an account now, so I'm automatically hyper-local on all devices! This is without question the best weather app I've used. After nine months I still can't fault it. Make use of the widgets too!
Perfection, others are junk There are handfuls of other weather apps out there. Like, "the mother", The Weather Channel. Which is anything BUT weather. This app, clean, smooth, fast and most importantly accurate. VERY ACCURATE. The options are great too. Like seeing other's local reports. Not predictions, but what other users are experiencing. The hourly report is my favorite. I plan my days off around it, keeps me very efficient. Great work WU.
Used to love it... Suddenly no matter what I do, including uninstall/reinstall, the damn thing gives me notices for St. Anthony, MN instead of NM where I actually live. Then, if I go into the app, instead of it showing me the local station I refine to, it shows me 10 miles away, which in these mountains is ENTIRELY different weather! What happened? This used to be a great app!
My favorite replacement for Genie 1.x. Had some server issues, and it does occasionally eat battery... But the developers have been hard at it and have addressed the issues each time. I would like to be able to dynamically adjust the temp/moisture bar... Daily is too compressed and hourly too stretched for my tastes... Other than that enhancement request, it does the job admirably.
Weather Underground June 27, 2016
Sorry about that. We have experienced server issues and are returning to normal services and will keep monitoring. Worked fine and then......... This app used to work great, location was on point, temperature, radar, etc, all worked. Now, the app crashes a lot and the location is consistently off. I want reliable weather forecasts and when my location is consistently off, I can't and I can't get any reliable weather if the app is constantly crashing without me even opening it. I would rate this at least 4 stars if it worked. It's been having these issues for over a week now. Why it has yet to be addressed and fixed is mind boggling. Plz fix!!!
Having an issue. Please help! I've loved this app for years. However, I'm having an issue where it won't load any weather data. It will tell me current conditions and radar but I can't see the future forecast. Just says "--". I deleted the app and reinstalled it, worked fine for 2 days but now it's back to the error. I love this app and don't want another! Please help!
"Upgrade" Sux I used to love this app. I gave it 1 star only because it USED to be a good app, it was my favorite weather app, but after the last "Upgrade" it doesn't want to open half the time, and when it does open it won't give current weather conditions for any of my saved locations. And the radar doesn't work anymore. Looks like I'll be on the hunt for a new app!
This is one of the best websites and listeners that I've had I've had on this phone in a long time I've asked for help from my website to get my weather Wright but they didn't precisely right they even put the Hollywood on it I love it and thank They fix and repair my leather that no other way of the day they're great they give him five and a half Stars I
Best weather app Most accurate results since they have the most weather stations. Ads not too annoying, and easy to just get the information you need. Not sure it's actually better than before the redesign... But as it stands today it's still pretty good.
Use to work... Worked great on gingerbread 2.3.5 updated to 2.3.6 and now keeps refreshing and displaying new york city's weather. I live in Denver. So annoying. Wont be trying this app again in a while... Wow this is still here. Works amazing now on Nexus 5x. Hands down best weather app out there.
Was... Great. It constantly crashes now. Literally 10+ times a day. Soo unfortunate because it used to be so great. ****old review*** So accurate, so detailed. The fact it goes from local stations for a more accurate reading/ it asking for your input to confirm its accuracy- 10/10 never using the weather network again.
Location Accuracy Pinpoints my location better than other apps I've used. I'm in the mountains of Panama and when other apps give me the closest town, just a mile can mean 5 or 6 degrees off on temperature. I have 2 apps running on my screen, the other one insists on using Boquete for my temperature so I always see the difference.
Recommended! Great app; easy to use and understand. I like that it has lots of information in an easy to consume presentation. 4 stars instead of 5 because every now and then (very infrequently) it seems to glitch and not show the temperature line on the weekly forecast graph.
Great app, but I would love a better widget selection I have tried pretty much every free weather app out there and this is the one I have stuck with. I love the detailed hourly graph showing temperature and precipitation chance, but please put this into a a better widget! The current one cannot be scalable or customizable in any capacity. I would love this feature for a few devices. Other than that small request, I would definitely recommend this app.
WAS A Great weather app! Doesn't work on Nexus 5x or Nexus 6p. I'm moving to a difference weather application. Thanks for the run while it lasted, but until saner heads are making the decisions at the Underground, I'll be a past user. Sorry to not be a paying user. The value you give must be easier and better. Do you need a beta tester?
My go to weather channel So far so good app seems to work great and I like that you can l Iink up to pws.. seems to run well not.. doesn't lag or freeze my phone up like other weather apps I previously downloaded . Hopefully it continues to work well... 12/2016 weather underground what can I say it's still my go to weather app and now have downloaded the "storm" app also which has been great to use..
Perfect app I can't think of a way this app could be better than it already is. It gives a quick overview or a deep dive, depending on what you want. Info is presented clearly and concisely. After trying several other better known but disappointing apps, it's great to have this one.
