Rain Viewer Essential
Not too bad. I gave it 5 stars due to its ease of installation, intuitive interface, customization flexibility and cost of the service. $19.99 per year for ad-free use is about average for a good weather app. It seems to be battery friendly, which is paramount to have for a feature. I'll keep testing it here in Texas because we have weirdest extreme weather conditions of any place in the United States.
