WHERE OUR WEATHER AND OCEAN DATA IS SOURCED:
We want you to be able to trust us as a new app for your weather and ocean conditions. Our data is sourced from trusted providers like National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Weather Service (NWS), StormGlass, and Open-Meteo, ensuring accuracy and reliability by analyzing data from multiple services to combine into one spot. We all know those “trusted apps” that seem to display completely different weather data for the exact same location… we don’t like that, so we’re making an attempt to solve it.
