Weather is a hot topic this summer. Sometimes rain takes us by storm, at others, the day is unbearably sunny.  Mother Nature is unpredictable, yet in the 21st century we can rely on some weather apps to stay safe, and at least keep from getting completely soaked in a sudden shower.

This app is probably the pick of the crowd. Users brag about its easy-to-read displays and the wealth of data it offers. AccuWeather further provides granular details on hourly, daily and weekly conditions thanks to weather forecast updates every 15 minutes. As its name implies, it is pretty accurate, so you can safely plan your trips.
