Don't read the forecast. Get the answer. Today Ready turns local weather into the choices you make before leaving: what to wear, whether to bring a layer, and whether you need an umbrella. Free features: - Today's outfit, layer, and umbrella answer - One morning notification - Runs-cold and runs-hot adjustment - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets - No account, ads, or tracking With Today Ready Pro: - Get your umbrella and outfit the moment you leave home — when your home Wi-Fi disconnects, the charger comes off, or your alarm stops. Set it up once with a Shortcuts automation. No "Always" location access needed, and never more than one alert a day - The whole family at once: add each person's name, icon and runs-cold or runs-hot setting, and see everyone's outfit on the home screen and in notifications. The umbrella is shared - Also: going-out and coming-home advice, tomorrow's answer the evening before, up to three saved places, forecasts through the weekend when available, and weekday notification choices Today Ready Pro is an auto-renewable subscription, billed monthly or yearly. New subscribers can try it free for 1 week (if eligible). After the trial, the subscription renews automatically at the price of the plan you chose unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can cancel anytime in your App Store subscription settings. Pro supports Family Sharing, so everyone in your family can use it on their own iPhone. Your saved places, family and settings are not deleted when a subscription ends. Current-location weather and all free features remain available. Weather data is provided by Apple Weather.

CheckWeather.io

CheckWeather puts the public weather models for your location side by side and shows you two things no other weather app does: how much they agree, hour by hour, and which one has actually been right where you live. WHAT YOU SEE - A forecast confidence chip: High, Medium or Low, with how far apart the models are right now. - The number on screen comes from the model that has been most accurate in your city over the last 30 days, never a blind average. - Rain, next 48 hours, model by model: each model's own rain, hour by hour, on one scale, with midnight marked. - Who says what: every model's high, low and rain for each of the next eight days, with a three-hour table underneath. - How right were they here: yesterday's forecasts held against what happened, and how far off to expect a forecast at one, three and seven days' notice. - Rain radar with a scrubber, air quality and pollen, sea state on the coast, sunrise, sunset and golden hour, and severe weather warnings from the National Weather Service in the US. - An alert when the models stop agreeing about tomorrow, plus a morning briefing and rain alerts, scheduled on your phone from the forecast it already has. THE MODELS United States: NWS National Blend, NOAA GFS, ECMWF. United Kingdom: Met Office, ECMWF, GFS. Canada: Environment Canada GEM, ECMWF, GFS. Australia and New Zealand: ECMWF, GFS, DWD ICON. Anywhere else: the three global models every national forecaster starts from. ACCURACY YOU CAN CHECK Every model's forecast is scored daily against reanalysis of what actually happened, across 300 cities in each country, on checkweather.io. The apps that keep their models private cannot be checked like this, so we do not pretend to grade them. NO ADS, NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING Forecasts from Open-Meteo. Radar from RainViewer.
