Description

Easily find the best times to witness natural wonders — or simply avoid getting caught in the rain! This beautifully crafted app and widget collection shows forecasted rainbows, clouds, rain, snow, wind, auroras, and other weather phenomena in a compact timeline that's quick to understand at a glance. Innovative features include: • Extreme weather warnings are shown directly on the timeline, so you can see exactly when the danger is expected — including thunderstorms, fires, hurricanes, flooding, and landslides. • Inline minute-by-minute precipitation forecasts show the next-hour conditions derived from radar stations. • Air quality forecasts combine local sensor readings to provide health guidance. • Our proprietary algorithm even predicts the chance of rainbows! Use the interactive map to request forecasts for any location in the world — including mountains, trails, lakes, and literally anywhere you place a marker. We take privacy seriously with NO ads, NO tracking, and NO third-party analytics. Weather Strip only stores location data on your local device, and it always uses approximate locations when requesting weather forecasts. Weather Strip also respects your data plan, with optional background app refresh that automatically learns your habits, and the ability to view your recent forecasts even when your connection drops. Weather Strip is completely free to try for two weeks. After that, a minimal subscription price helps us keep the service running. (Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled within 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can turn off auto-renewal at any time by going to your Account Settings on the App Store after purchase.) Not all features are available in all locations. Forecasts are issued by Foreca and Apple Weather globally and by the U.S. National Weather Service (NOAA NWS) in the United States. Designed by data visualization researcher Robin Stewart to help everyone enjoy the outdoors.

  • Amazingly useful

    I use this app so many times a day, every day. The impeccable design is fun and surprisingly intuitive. Great for weather geeks, but at the same time it never overloads you with info you don’t need. The developer has clearly taken so much care over how to represent every part of the weather forecast not only on its own, but in relation to all the other parts, too. And the app’s use of NWS forecasts for the US means real humans are guiding what this app shows. What a solidly crafted app, made by a developer who clearly cares!

    Forecasts just aren’t accurate for me. It always overestimates rain, or missed it entirely. No radar map. Was hoping this could possibly replace Dark Sky but not there, especially for the price
  • I’d buy it just for the widgets

    There’s more data in the widgets than I thought could be possible. But it’s not confusing (after a few days). If you’re a weather nerd, you need this.
  • Love it

    My favorite weather app because there’s a ton of information available at a glance, but it’s very non-intrusive in its delivery. Once you’ve used it a bit, you can get the “feel” for the forecast without really thinking about it.
  • Love the graphics!

    The app is great, but the widgets are totally non functional.
  • Love the overlay format

    Still getting used to it but really wanted an app that would overlay predicted precipitation, cloud cover, wind, and temp all at once. Found it here! Def worth the modest monthly price (in annual plan) to keep my location private and support development, maintenance, and data fees incurred by the developer. Thank you very much for building an app like this.
  • Keeps getting better

    The author just added more enhancements to this app: some of my favorites are customizable "feels like" temp plus the ability to make it the primary main screen readout with actual temp as secondary, and an extended 9-day forecast available on the "strip". Great stuff. Kudos!
  • Thank you!

    The most innovative interface in a weather app since the original Weather Line.

    All the weather data anyone could want at a glance. And artistically presented. Perfection! PLEASE make us a Watch complication to go with it.
