What people are saying:
"It's a million impressive little things. It's the blurring of the background; its the subtle parallax scroll when flipping between cities; it's the way the windmills spin faster or slower based on the actual current windspeed." - Greg Kumparak, TechCrunch

Editors’ Notes
An elegant blend of striking photography and nuanced information, Yahoo’s interactive weather app will delight you every time you open it. Expanding the wonderfully streamlined interface reveals a 10-day forecast, heat and wind maps, and other handy displays, while a quick swipe lets you instantly check the temperature in another favorite location.
Detailed and accurate
I have not tried a whole lot of weather apps, but I did read about several before choosing one. The reason I tried this one is first, that it is free. Second, it is detailed with many options and as far as I can tell, seems very accurate.
I love all the little animations that it adds for effect. Like showing the windmills spinning according to how fast the wind is blowing, and showing the sun moving across until it hits the area that it currently is at in the sky. There is a map of the area at the bottom that has several options for viewing such a satellite and radar. You can add and delete cities and move them around as you like. It gives a 10 day forecast. And a beautiful picture to go with each city.
For a free app, this one is very impressive. And the advertisements that are inevitable with a free app, are non-intrusive. They show up as a section of their own as you scroll down through the various sections of each city. So you simply scroll past them and it is no big deal. They do not interfere with viewing.
Aug 2020: what was your design team thinking?
What happened in your update? Where’s the data, the Coronavirus stats??! This looks like a kid’s book now. Ridiculous changes and design decisions in this update. It’s bulkier and gives less info at a glance. What a disappointment. This used to be my go to app. I loved its concise data, small hourly view of the weather, and general appearance. There’s little left from the original version to keep me returning now. I have no idea why you would ruin a good layout and design. Your design team missed what people want. With the most recent update this month (August 2020) The weather icons are chunky, and fill up the screen. No appeal whatsoever. The original app was beautiful to look at with local photos that changed about every 30 seconds, pulled in from Flickr. They gave a personal view of the area with a stunning overall effect. I loved checking the weather just to see the photos in an area, too. That changed a few years ago. Now I rarely see any local photos and the ones selected rarely change or have nothing to do with the region. Often they weren’t even taken in the same country. I have no idea why each update has become less appealing. What were you thinking?
Two stars. Downgraded from five. I think the weather is about as accurate as it used to be. But I can get that elsewhere.
