AccuWeather - Weather for Life for Windows

Comprehensive weather app for PC

AccuWeather is a free weather application that was made by AccuWeather for PC devices. It provides users with comprehensive weather forecasts based on their locations. Updates can be given on a minute-by-minute, hourly, or daily basis. It even offers users access to weather videos for more visual representations.

Just like with other services, such as Weather or MyRadar, AccuWeather enables users to keep up-to-date with the weather conditions in their area and be informed of any developing typhoon or severe rainfall to watch out for in case they need to step out of their homes.

What information can it offer me?

AccuWeather has been one of the most popular weather services for years now and for a good reason, too. It offers a simple and intuitive user experience and provides accurate and reliable weather forecasts and information. The app can automatically detect your location using your internet connection or GPS on your device. Alternatively, you can use the search bar to look for and add multiple locations to keep track of.

AccuWeather utilizes MinuteCast in order to provide you with minute-by-minute weather updates, along with Humidity, UV Index, Wind Speed, and others. You can toggle a view that displays forecasts for multiple days at a time. There is also a city-by-city map view or satellite images for a broader overview of weather conditions in your country. You can select to show specific weather hazards or conditions as you want, too.

Head over to Settings, and you can change options like your preferred unit of measure, change between light or dark themes, and enable severe weather alerts. One area where the app still needs work on, though, is its design. At this point, it already looks outdated, especially compared to other weather apps in the market today. In relation to that, customization options are lacking.

Still one of the best out there

Whether you've used it for a long time now or this is your first experience with it, you'll be glad to know that AccuWeather is just as reliable and accurate as it has ever been. The amount of information that it provides is still quite impressive even with newer solutions being available in the market already. Outside of a few visual quirks, it is still highly recommended.
