Nearly every weather app that exists is repackaging data from an official, tax funded source. Apps using weather underground data possibly being the only exception.
Show me one that doesn't want location permissions and such. So now they've got Your data and can do as they please with it.
The weather source. Not the application source. A dude needs to sit down and write that part.
Sure, and it would be cool if that dude didn't pass my personal information to a third party.
Breezy Weather
Not affiliated, just discovered this amazing app relatively recently.
I think the last time I tried a bunch, it came down to Breezy and Cirrus. I think they're pretty similar but I settled on Cirrus for whatever reason. Here's a link for anyone interested.
