UndercastWeather Aether delivers National Weather Service forecasts alongside on-device, model-enhanced predictions you can compare side by side. The idea is simple: you should be able to see the official forecast AND a smarter interpretation of it — without giving up your privacy. WHAT MAKES UNDERCAST DIFFERENT • Dual-mode forecasts — switch between raw NWS data and Aether-enhanced predictions with a tap • On-device learning — Aether refines its forecasts using local signals; nothing leaves your device • Severe weather Live Activities — Tornado, Thunderstorm, Flood, and other warnings appear on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island the moment they're issued, with hazard-specific icons • Astronomical data — sunrise, sunset, moon phase, and twilight times sourced from the U.S. Naval Observatory • Searchable — find any U.S. location by ZIP code, city, or state, no location sharing required BUILT FOR APPLE PLATFORMS Native experiences on Mac, iPhone, and iPad — with a Home Screen widget for at-a-glance conditions. ONGOING UPDATES UndercastWeather regularly updates Aether to improve accuracy, performance, and features. PRIVACY FIRST Aether's learning happens on device. Your trained data never leaves your devices — with optional iCloud sync, it moves only between your Apple devices through your private iCloud account. You don't need to share your location to use the app, and we don't collect telemetry on your forecast usage. Our apps do not use third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, tracking SDKs, data brokers, or third-party service connections. We encourage every user to turn on Apple’s App Privacy Report to see this for themselves. To enable App Privacy Report on iPhone or iPad, open Settings > Privacy & Security > App Privacy Report > Turn On App Privacy Report. After you use the app for a while, iOS will show the network domains contacted by the app. For our apps, expected network activity should be limited to Apple-operated services needed for normal App Store, iCloud, device, or system functionality. In our weather app, you may also see direct connections to official weather or environmental data sources, such as NOAA, EPA, or similar public data originators used to provide the requested forecast, alert, air-quality, or environmental information. We believe privacy claims should be inspectable, not merely promised. NOTE Only locations within the United States are supported, as Aether is trained (on device) on data sourced by you from the National Weather Service.

High Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) days are more common each year. This free Wet Bulb Tracker sends you alerts and keeps you informed. Plan your activities for the day, at work or with family, with your health and safety in mind. Air Temperature is about hot air. Wet Bulb Temperature measures humid-heat conditions to indicate how much your body can cool without help, when active outdoors. Our body runs at about 36°C / 97°F, so a Wet Bulb of 30°C / 86°F feels uncomfortably warm, and by 35°C / 95°F the body dangerously overheats. THE OUTDOOR READING, FRONT AND CENTRE Wet Bulb is usually read off instruments in the field, but mathematical models let us work it out from weather data for a location. Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is calculated in the app from air temperature, humidity, sun, and wind. Calculations follow the US National Weather Service's forecast method: a psychrometric solve for Wet Bulb, and the Dimiceli and Piltz globe model. This reading is useful when working, training, or walking outside, as a heat risk warning. WET BULB MATH ANSWERS A DIFFERENT QUESTION FROM 'FEELS LIKE' Feels Like answers: how hot does the air feel? A Feels Like of 32°C / 90°F is just a warm day. Wet Bulb Globe answers: how much can sweating cool you outdoors? A Wet Bulb Globe of 32°C / 90°F is Critical, and tells you to immediately stop exertion outside and stay actively cool. It matters. HEAT ALERTS Alerts notify you when outdoor Wet Bulb rises at your location. Adjust alerts in Settings. SEE A WHOLE DAY'S TIMELINE View an hourly timeline of each day's Wet Bulb Globe temperature, colored by safety level, showing how humid-heat builds and fades. Drag the marker across the day and the readings above it change. Hours likely to see rain show a smaller bar giving the percentage chance in your area. KNOW WHAT TO DO Every risk level comes with basic but handy Guidance: how long it's reasonable to stay out, what to watch for, and when to take breaks. The About page links to the Wet Bulb thresholds used by militaries, occupational safety bodies, and national weather services worldwide. WORK IT OUT - GET AN UNDERSTANDING The Calc tab lets you slide in any air temperature, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation and watch both readings respond. Useful for teaching the concept or calculating from data. FREE WET BULB TRACKER: The Wet Bulb Globe reading wherever you are, today's full hourly timeline with chance of rain, 'Rising Wet Bulb' alerts, Heat care guidance, the calculator with both readings, and city search worldwide.
