I normally don't promote apps, but this is my anti- Weather.com extreme use of ads way beyond any other free sites posting. If you use Chrome as your browser you can hold the mouse pointer over the tab of a web page and details of that page will display. At the bottom of the details is how much memory that page is using (aka: how big is the download of the web page and all its ads). As you go to web sites with ads, see how much memory is used. Weather.com uses 2 to 3 times as much memory than any other web site with ads and averages way over 1 GB download each time you access the site.
But, you want up to date weather at different locations.
The answer I found is WeatherMate. WeatherMate is freeware that you can download from Oldergeeks.com at the link below. It gives me the weather I want without any ads. Mine is set to AutoHide and display only when I move the mouse to its hide location, but updates in the background. Can be set to pop up weather alerts. The only negative is no useful Radar map.
WeatherMate 4.21
Note: At Oldergeeks.com the download link is at the bottom of the page.
