Oh man I miss Dark Sky. I have yet to find a weather app as good. briefsky[0] was recently posted on here and I think I'll try using it for a while. Also of note is Pirate Weather[1], a weather API in the same style as Dark Sky.
Also Merry Sky[1], which uses the Pirate Weather API. Open-Meteo is also interesting.

MerrySky is so good.
Geometric Weather is a fantastic app with the same look and feel. Carrot Weather also just (?) added what is effectively a "DarkSky mode". It's lovely.
Geometric Weather looks good, but I'm not crazy about its Accuweather backend.
One newish app that's good (though it unfortunately doesn't have a status bar weather indicator) is omWeather[1], and it uses Open-Meteo as its backend.

Merry Sky (https://merrysky.net/) has replaced Dark Sky for me, a homescreen link to the website and it's doing a good job for at a glance weather and 'feels like' lookups.
Thanks - briefsky looks the part, although it's disappointing there's no map
briefsky is what I switched to. I found the Open-Meteo feels-like numbers to be way off in NYC but Pirate Weather has been fine.
