If you have iPhone, Apple Weather (free, built in) is more accurate than most paid weather apps. Don't pay for AccuWeather Premium or Weather Channel ad-free. Apple Weather has hyperlocal Dark Sky technology. Add severe weather alerts in Settings, add multiple cities for family. That's all most seniors need for weather.
