ForecastAdvisor shows that Microsoft weather data is the most accurate in my area. However, the widget is poorly designed. It's fine if you have plenty of space for a big widget, but you can't make it as small as I would want it. Other weather widgets let you make them small enough to just show the temperature.

I consult Forecast Advisor for the most accurate forecast service in my area. Microsoft has consistently scored among the highest services so I downloaded the app. The data seems accurate but the interface is in sore need of an update. Only one (large) widget and it is buggy. Often switches to Celsius on its own and doesn't do a good job of updating. The app itself is ok but only a section of the MSN Start launcher. I'm hanging on for now, hoping for an update soon...

If this app just had the weather app and not the Home, Bing, Tabs and Apps, this would be a decent app. Also, the widgets are too big, have an option to size the widget to 1x1 or 2x2 at least. And, there's not an option for the ongoing temp in the tab bar on top and or on the lock screen please. Otherwise, the weather is more accurate than most. Thank you for that.
