Thanks to Dan I've installed Dark Sky and am enjoying its depiction of
the hourly and daily weather forecasts. For precip I prefer "My
Radar". It's accurate, you can zoom in for good local depiction
without pixelating and the base app is free, with in-app purchases to
extend coverage. It doesn't give a surface analysis, but does plot
winds so you can get a general idea of the surface plot by analyzing
the wind patterns. For in depth surface analysis my fallback is the
aviation weather prog charts.

Thanks, Dan.
Since the excellent Storm app was senselessly gutted and replaced by the
slow and inadequate Storm Radar, I've been looking. Weather Live,
Weather
live (yup, the name differs by the capitalization), Weather Channel,
AccuWeather, NOAA Radar Pro, Weather Bug, and Dark Sky and a few others
have all passed through my phone.
I like Dark Sky's forecast presentation, but would rather have a radar
image than Dark Sky's "map". AccuWeather provides the same detailed
information as Dark Sky ("Rain beginning in 20 minutes"). None of them
provide a surface analysis (map showing high and low pressure areas and
fronts), which Storm did.
Weather observation has been an interest of mine since 5th grade,
though,
so I'm choosy.

If you are not familiar with Dark Sky, It is the best weather app
around,
in my estimation. It provides very local forecasts such as "Light rain
starting in 20 minutes, ending 45 minutes later."
I rely on it to time my twice daily dog walks.
It has just undergone a major upgrade, which is described here:

Try it; I think you will find it very useful.
