Apple Weather forecasts for my area have shown a 30-50% chance of precipitation for eternity, even when there isn’t a cloud in sight. My meteorologist has told his readers to ignore Apple’s forecasts.
This started around the time the Apple Weather outages a few months ago and haven’t improved. YSK that you can report inaccurate forecasts from within the app, but it hasn’t improved for me.
I’m currently using Foreca on iPhone and the free version of Carrot on Apple Watch.
I’ve noticed the same thing. I was somewhat optimistic about Apple’s purchase of DarkSky and planned integration of DarkSky technology into Apple Weather. I mean, DarkSky was awesome. Surely, DarkSky technology + Apple’s resources would result in the ultimate weather app! Boy, was I wrong. Apple obviously took a wrong turn somewhere because the new and improved Apple Weather is anything but.
Dark Sky was the best! All apple needed to do was rename it and yet here we are. Accurate weather reporting should be a given at this point and they can’t get it right.
Why don’t they just make a deal with a reputable meteorology group, and just use their reports.

For you it might have been. But it went to shit for me long before the Apple announcement. As with most things location, location, location.
As other have said there are various weather models produced by different companies. And some are better in certain areas than others.
I found it hit and miss. What I don’t like is the forecast of rain in 20 mins or telling me way ahead when I used to like dark sky telling me rain in 5 mins or starting soon
