## What is Avalanche Forecast?

See the daily avalanche warning level for selected regions in Norway and Sweden, or based on your current location in the app, as a widget on your home screen, or directly on your wrist on the Apple Watch.

Interactive map view shows all avalanche regions colored by danger level. Tap a region to see the detailed forecast with avalanche problems and recommendations.

Data is delivered by the Norwegian Avalanche Warning Service (varsom.no) and the Swedish Avalanche Warning Service (lavinprognoser.se).
