Weather notifications

I'm sure 4wd's comment was directed at kalos, who unfortunately so far always needs to be asked 20 questions in order to find the relevant info

Ah... that makes sense :)
I have tried various which I uninstalled, dón't remember the names. Many of them required me to pay to be able to use notifications. Others just didn't work (never got notified of the rain on one day).
I just want an app to do a simple thing: inform me at 7am if it is going to rain today or not (perhaps when about and how likely) with a push notification. Simple isn't it?

If that's your only criteria, just use IFTTT. The image above shows the recipe that I used. And it gives me a forecast on my device every day at 7AM, no fail.

But I only want to get notified if there is chance for rain!

You'd have to look into it.
There is an applet with the following description:
Tomorrow's forecast calls for
This Trigger monitors changes in tomorrow’s forecasted weather condition.

And the first one in the list is Rain. But you'd have to see if it works for you.

That IFTTT seems very interesting, I didn't know about it at all.
Do you sign in with your Gmail and these scripts are pushed into your phone? How does it work exactly?
Also, I tried to use a script but it wants to 'read, write, delete, send emails' from my Gmail account! That's horrifying, is it safe?

You'll have to take a look and decide for yourself. I don't link my google account, so don't really know. There's an app for android and iOS, and I use the app for Android.
