## Yahoo Weather Description
Weather for people with places to be. Forecasts, air quality, and pollen. Everything you need before you walk out the door.

Favorite Features:

Accurate, Actionable Forecasts
• Stay Prepared: The numbers that decide your day come first: temperature, wind, and the chance of rain.
• Minute-by-Minute Precipitation: MinuteCast® tells you the minute rain starts or stops at your exact location. Plan your day with precision.
• Severe Weather Safety: Opt-in alerts for dangerous weather, major storms, and heat waves. You decide what’s worth an alert.
• Detailed Daily Planning: Hourly, 5-day, and 10-day forecasts, so you can plan the week and adjust when it changes.
• RealFeel®: The thermometer doesn't tell the whole story. RealFeel® factors in wind and humidity. Know what to wear for the weather before you're in it.
• Widgets: The forecast before you open the app.
• Light & Dark Mode: Choose the look that works for you, or let it match your phone.

Interactive Radar & Maps
• Live Weather Radar: What's falling right now, on your street or anywhere on the globe.
• Track Storms: See where a storm is headed and when it will reach you.

Air Quality, Pollen & Health
• Air Quality: Real-time AQI, so you can check the air before walking the dog, your commute, or a day outside.
• Pollen Count: Daily pollen counts for tree, grass, and weed, so allergy season has fewer surprises.
• UV Index: Sunburn risk for the day, even when it's cool or cloudy, so you know when to cover up.
• Humidity & Dew Point: A better read on how the air will feel than temperature alone.

Travel & Multi-City Tracking
• Know Before You Go: Add up to 20 cities to your dashboard. Pack for the weather that's where you’ll actually be.
• Multi-City Swipe: One swipe between your hometown, your next trip, and your favorite destinations.
• Airport Weather: The forecast at major airports, so you know the weather at both ends of your flight.

Photography & Design
• Beautiful Photography: Real photos matched to your location, the time of day, and what the sky is doing right now.
• Clean Interface: Open the app, get your answer, go. Nothing between you and the forecast.
• Moon Phase: Tonight's phase, moonrise and moonset, and days until the next full moon.

Accessibility
• Works with your device's built-in screen reader. Optimized for color contrast. Follows the text size you set on your device. 

Helpful Tips
• Scroll Down: For detailed weather information, simply scroll down on the main screen.
• Manage Locations: Tap the search button and add your favorite cities to see their forecasts. Perfect for following the weather where your people live.

## Yahoo Weather Reviews in United States

### ***** "Best weather app"
I’ve tried quite a few weather apps and this one works good, no ads.
-- J7363662, 2024-12-31

### ***** "Accurate"
Clear, easy to read, accurate and professional, good job .
-- Nove169€, 2024-12-28

### **--- "So, so inaccurate as of Dec 2024"
I’ve been using this app for years. But in the past few weeks, it’s been wildly inaccurate and they don’t seem to be doing anything about it.
-- pursuit37, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Inoperable"
Horrible app not able to use it. Now I can’t get my yahoo email.
-- Stella&GigisDad, 2024-12-28

### ***** "Great concept"
Love the pictures but need to get pictures from the smaller towns not just the major cities. You see lots of improvements over the years.
-- WH AND TKH, 2024-12-26

### ***** "It's not hot today. It's only 78 and I'm cold in the shade."
How do I find a further forecast? Like 10 days or longer I would like on the forecast. Thank you for your service.
-- stand up straight, 2024-12-24

### ****- "Good app"
I find this app very useful, pretty accurate.  Would be even better if it had windchill
-- aneilski, 2024-12-23

### ***** "Yahoo Weather better than...."
I find Yahoo Weather to generally be more accurate than the local news weather forecast, other weather apps & the Weather Channel!!!” Definitely recommended!!!
-- WilburO2, 2024-12-22

### ***** "Daily Go To"
The app is easy to use, comes up quickly, and is right 85 to 90% of the time.  None of them are right 100%.  It gives you wind and humidity and pollen info.
-- Mimito13, 2024-12-21

### ***** "Snow today"
Love the pictures that goes with the weather situations of the location ☀️🌨❄️🌬☃️🌤
-- MARINELLABV, 2024-12-21
