Know how it feels. Know what to do. Terra Forecast turns the forecast into plain advice. Open it and you see how the day feels, what to do about it, and when the best hours outside are. No charts to decode. FEEL THE FORECAST A small clay terrarium shows the weather as it is: sun, cloud, rain, snow, fog, wind and storms, day and night. Scrub the hourly timeline and the scene follows. WHAT TO DO A short line of advice for right now, written for how you live. Choose General, Commuter or Active and the advice speaks to your day: umbrella or not, short sleeves or a jacket, whether the ride home is dry. BEST TIME OUTSIDE See the hours when it is comfortable, and a T-Shirt Weather indicator for when short sleeves are enough. MADE FOR GLANCING Premium Home Screen widgets bring the mood, temperature, daily outlook, and changing conditions to your Home Screen.
