Weather app called "Weather 14 Days". Forgot how I found the app. I think from looking for an extended forecast app for a trip a couple of years ago.
I don't set aside time to read for forecast, but will check out while doing other stuff on phone when the weather catches my attention.

I check my local cable TV's news broadcast although I often go to their website because their weather info includes an hourly temperature forecast for the next 24-32 hours.

I chose "other". DH is my personal weatherman and generally warns me when there is a front coming through, its going to freeze, a hurricane is in the gulf, etc. I never have paid much attention to the weather, even before we got married. If it rains, I just deal with it. I sort of like the surprise.

NOAA Weather on Android. Graphs tell the story best!

I rarely check the weather because it generally only changes twice a year. We have no rain,storms or other weather events, pretty boring really! It is either sunny out or is not.

Used to love looking at the weather maps in the daily newspaper when I was a kid - big H's and L's and isobars. Clockwise around a high in the northern hemisphere! Now use the government website when on computer and when I want to look at radar on phone or the phone's default weather app for forecast when using phone.
