Has a calendar icon, tap it to see any actual day historically or, if more tham 2 weeks ahead, based on almanac type prediction. Used to be best out there for considering travel three months from now.
I’m a weather geek with ~4 folder panes of 9 apps each, and WeatherNerd is in the “must have” front pane.
Dark Sky used to be my #1, but was superseded by Carrot (which has a Dark Sky feed) for everyday use and Windy.app at storm-prone water front with microclimates and wind/wave/tide patterns, thanks to meteogram-style overlay of competing weather models for precipitation and wind.
iOS 16 Weather is remarkable though. It’s now easily third on my list, and would likely be first for most people especially since no subscription fee. For instance, try to use apps to look at UV graph for next Saturday — few can. The live background is fun, and the iPad layout is as much detail instrumentation as most people can handle.
But in my book, DarkSky started it all — the race for precise accurate practical usable micro cell weather, and happy for them they are now getting into so many more hands through the new iOS 16 app.
Got any Android recommendations? I've been using meteogram because I can configure it to be pretty close to what I want.
My ideal weather app would be able to tell me the chance of rain on a specific route at a specific time. Now that I'm no longer bike commuting, that's not so important. I still like to know chance of rain, per hour, for my location.

But Carrot is the spiritual successor.

It has TimeTravel too. And because Carrot has a fully editable UI builder, it transmogrifies into whatever weather app you like best.
