TemperAare vs Aarestation

Is the water warm enough to dare a plunge? TemperAare gives you live temperature data from the Aare river. Temperatures get updated whenever they change by 0.2 degrees Celsius.

Aarestation – Jump in the Aare? Get your answer in seconds. Instead of checking a weather app, a hydrological data portal, and an air quality site separately, Aarestation shows you everything at a glance: is today a good day for an Aare swim in Bern? THE PAI SCORE – YOUR DECISION-MAKER The PAI algorithm condenses air temperature, wind, humidity, discharge, UV index, and water temperature into a single score from 1 to 10. A high score means the best possible conditions for jumping in. MAI – YOUR VERY OWN SCORE Every swimmer is different.
