Most weather apps just say "Cloudy." Visual Weather shows you exactly how cloudy. Visual Weather is the first app to visualize the atmosphere in depth. Our unique pixel-engine renders High, Mid, and Low cloud layers independently, giving you a true picture of the sky before you even step outside. Why Layers Matter: • Photographers: Know when to expect dramatic high-altitude cirrus clouds versus flat grey stratus. • Outdoor Enthusiasts: Gauge cloud height and conditions instantly for hiking, sailing, or stargazing. • Everyone: Understand the difference between a "sunny day with some clouds" and an "overcast day." Two Ways to Explore: • Compact View: Quick hourly forecast with toggleable rain, wind, and gust overlays. • Detailed View: Swipe through beautiful color-coded charts for temperature, cloud layers, precipitation, wind, and humidity. See exactly how conditions change hour by hour. Live Sun Tracker: Watch the sun's path arc across the sky in real-time. See current altitude, time until sunrise or sunset, and how day length is changing throughout the season. Powered by Precision Data: Using high-resolution HRRR models, we map: • Cloud Cover % (High/Mid/Low) • Precipitation Intensity • Wind Speed, Gusts & Direction • Temperature & Humidity Trends • Sun Position & Day Length Features: • Dynamic Pixel-Art Visualization • 16-Day Hybrid Forecast (HRRR + GFS) • Silky-Smooth Radar with Frame Morphing • Live Sun Tracker with Path & Altitude • Color-Coded Hourly Charts • Compact & Detailed View Modes Visual Weather Pro: Unlock the extended 16-day forecast, unlimited locations, and the full interactive radar loop. Don't just check the weather. Understand the sky. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Multi Weather

Multi Weather lines up official agency forecasts and numerical model output on one screen so you can spot where they disagree at a glance. Instead of trusting a single forecast, compare the official JMA forecast with the output of several models to make on-site Go/No-Go calls faster. ■ Official forecasts and model output together See official forecasts from JMA, MET Norway, Apple and NWS (US), alongside numerical model output from GFS, ECMWF, ICON and more — whichever are available for your location — overlaid on one timeline. Weather symbols (each agency's or model's own classification), precipitation (amount/probability), wind, temperature, cloud cover and humidity, side by side. Data sources: JMA, NOAA GFS, NWS (US), ECCC (Canada, GDPS), MET Norway, ECMWF (IFS, AIFS), ICON model (DWD), HARMONIE model (DMI), Apple Weather. ■ See the disagreement Every source is drawn on the same graph, so the hours where forecasts and model output split are visible at a glance. The way professionals read model differences — in seconds, for anyone. ■ Evidence export (CSV and PDF) Export the comparison as CSV or PDF to share. Hand a clear basis for a stop/postpone decision to clients or contractors. ■ Jump to other services Open JMA, tenki.jp, Yahoo Weather or Windy for the exact spot you're viewing, in an in-app window. ■ Built for the field For construction, civil works, ports, surveying, drones, film shoots, fishing and hiking — anything weather-dependent. Note: This app does not make its own forecast. It shows official agency forecasts (e.g. JMA) and numerical model output as provided, side by side. Numerical model output is not a forecast and may contain large errors. Final decisions are your responsibility. The first 30 days are completely free. To keep using all features afterward, an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly) is required — cancel anytime.
