Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Weather & Radar at 305K against Weather Clock Widget's 2.5K. Weather & Radar also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and chart position (#12 vs unranked). Weather Clock Widget's advantage is review sentiment (89% vs 75%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
