Backyard Weather vs PWS Console

**Personal Weather Station & Aviation Weather** Connect a PWS via Weather Underground, monitor aviation weather from any METAR airport, or track tides and coastal conditions from NOAA CO-OPS stations. **Three station types** • PWS — personal weather stations via Weather Underground • METAR — airport observations, updated every few minutes at most US airports • NOAA — tide gauges and coastal stations **Current conditions** Live readings with charts underneath, plus the record high, record low and average for today's date from your station's full archive. Up to 12 metrics depending on station type: temperature, feels like, humidity, wind, dew point, pressure, precipitation, UV, solar radiation, visibility, water temperature, and water level/tide. **Rich history charts** 1-day and 7-day charts you can drag to read exact values, times and wind direction. US airport stations fill in between the hourly reports, so today's line is a curve rather than 24 steps. **Alerts** Get notified when your station crosses a value you choose — a freeze, a gust, an inch of rain — or when it stops reporting altogether. Pressure drops, temperature swings and wind shifts are built in as ready-made rules. **Customisable units & display** 12- or 24-hour time, metric or imperial, and precision options for every number. **Color themes** Nine palettes for your charts and calendars. Preview any of them across every metric before you decide. **Widgets (Supporter)** Graph widgets for any metric over 1 or 7 days, a single-metric widget for one big number, a year-at-a-glance calendar, long-range history charts, a records widget, and Lock Screen complications. **Watch app (Supporter)** Temperature, feels like, humidity, wind, pressure and precipitation as watch complications, with every current metric and its graph in the app itself. **History & Records (Supporter)** Daily detail for any year your station has recorded — airports often reach back decades — plus all-time records, a record high and low for every calendar day, and yearly trends that overlay up to ten years on one chart. Free includes current conditions, 1-day and 7-day charts, one month of history, one alert per station, and three colour themes. Note: a Weather Underground API key is required for PWS stations. METAR and NOAA stations are free and need no API key. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Get current conditions, detailed forecasts, interactive radar, and at-a-glance weather information designed to make the data that matters easy to understand. BUILT FOR PERSONAL WEATHER STATION OWNERS Connect your Weather Underground personal weather station to bring your own observations into PWS Console. Temperature, humidity, wind, precipitation, heat index, wind chill, and other available station observations are presented alongside carefully selected forecast and weather information. FORECASTS DESIGNED TO BE READ PWS Console goes beyond rows of generic forecast cards. Follow temperature trends, apparent temperature, precipitation chances, conditions, and extended outlooks through visual presentations designed to make changing weather easier to understand. RADAR WHEN YOU NEED THE BIGGER PICTURE Explore interactive weather radar to see precipitation and approaching weather around you. FROM THE BIG SCREEN TO YOUR WRIST PWS Console is designed for the Apple ecosystem. Use it on iPhone and iPad, check weather from Apple Watch, and keep important conditions close at hand with widgets and complications. NO PERSONAL WEATHER STATION REQUIRED You don't need to own a personal weather station to use PWS Console. Location-based weather, forecasts, and radar are available without Weather Underground credentials. Personal weather station integration is an additional option for users who want to incorporate their own observations. WEATHER INFORMATION FROM TRUSTED SOURCES PWS Console brings together weather information from established providers and presents it through a consistent interface, selecting appropriate data for each part of the experience. Whether you're checking current conditions, planning around the forecast, watching approaching weather, or simply glancing at your wrist, PWS Console gives you a clearer view of your weather.
