Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: EverythingWeather at 1.4K against Weather Tracker's 3. EverythingWeather also leads on chart position (#68 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). Weather Tracker's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 91%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
