I'm sure this is a pretty open question but, what weather app are y'all using? I've had several but most seam to use a ton of battery life. I'd like to find a good one that doesn't drain your battery so much. Thoughts?

Today Weather works great and looks dining on the Note 8 screen.
 
I've been using Weather Timeline exclusively for years and love it. Tried all the other major competitors first.
 
Because I was dealing with a hurricane when my phone arrived, I use NOAA. Great alerts and radar. Now that it's passed, it ended up being my favorite weather app. Accurate as all get out.
 
I've used weather bug going back to blackberry curve days. Tried pretty much all and have always found weather bug to be the most accurate
 
I use both my radar and radarscope. And of course my local weather tv station app as well.
 
I like weather underground because I have a Personal Weather Station and know what the weather is like at my house (using Acu-Rite 5-1weather station).
I have also been using Weather Now as my live wallpaper for years. Absolutely love using my own wallpaper with their live weather animation overlays. I do not have a big battery hit on this Note 8 at all. My S8+ seemed to use more battery than this giant phone. Loving this N8!

I've used Beautiful Widgets for many years. I like how customizable it is. Aside from the on screen app info, you can set each area of the widget to open different apps when touched.

Same here...use my radar to see where the weather is though.
 
I like Weather bug the Most. Kind of depends what you're looking to get out of it and the layout designs you like
 
What The Forcast?! Funny and always accurate. I like the widget too.
 
I use weather underground. It's accurate. You can get the forecast broken down by hour, which is handy when I'm on my motorcycle. Also, you can get radar as well.
 
Dark Sky for accurate precipitation notifications. Wunderground for everything else.
 
I'm back on Weatherbug Elite currently . I like the layout , as well as all the info it provides.

If real severe weather breaks out ,I use Radar Now to track those storms since you can switch the radar to check the wind velocity to see possible tornadic weather (on the paid version)
