Oh how I miss DarkSky, and accuracy in weather apps in general. I have no idea if it is AI or just enshitification, but wow, local temps are just always way off with Apple Weather and most other apps. This is important to me because I live in my van and I am talking about these apps being off 5 to 10 degrees. The only one that comes close is Accuweather but their interface is horrific. And forget about the widgets...just show me the highs and lows for the week and quit changing the layout like you think i know what I want, because you do not.
Checkout forecast advisor. It ranks forecasting services for a location and gives you a summary forecast based on all the different services for that location.
Whenever I travel I find it pretty helpful. Certain services are just garbage in some areas.
For example, Foreca is like 84% accurate for my home location, but it's only 60% accurate for one of the cabins I frequent.
Unfortunately doesn’t include Apple Weather or AccuWeather so not as useful to me, but top at my location is only 81%.
If you are on iPhone and can afford it, Carrot Weather can show you Accuweather with Dark Sky’s interface.
