I use either AccuWeather or WeatherBug Elite for my iPhone. They both work very well, but it seems that WeatherBug tends to be more reliable; not weather wise, but app crashing type of probs I experience with AccuWeather.
The Weather Channel Max on my iPhone 4. Got it on sale for $0.99 one day, it's like the all in one weather app.
I have a Weather app folder with most weather apps, I like WeatherBug but it's super slow and crashes a lot. I need to update Accuweather to 4.0, I use it a lot and it's rough around the edges (the update has a new interface though) but still very good The default weather app is the quickest for just looking at temps.
In my opinion The Weather Channel has the best radar, it even has the future radar which actually comes in handy for me. Accuweather's radar is actually very similar but its not as smooth, minor difference. I think I'm using Accuweather's app the most now, probably because it's new (just updated it).
I've been looking for a replacement for the recently ruined Wunderground app.
"NOAA Weather Radar" provides a detailed interactive map where you can zoom in and the radar is very clear.
However, on Weather.gov you are stuck with this preset view. The radar is more pixelated and (IMO) not as easy to tell what is going on at first. I wonder why the high quality radar isn't available on the desktop site?
Radarscope is my go to radar app, it does nearly everything. I like to locate and track potential tornadoes, sometimes I spot them before warnings are even issued.
