Description
Stop checking weather apps every hour hoping for the perfect conditions. PhotoWeather monitors forecasts 24/7 and alerts you only when the weather matches your exact photography needs.
THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
You've driven hours to a location only to find flat light and clear skies. Or missed incredible fog at sunrise because you didn't check the forecast at 5 AM. PhotoWeather ensures you never miss those fleeting moments again.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Add your favorite photography locations
2. Create rules for the conditions you want (or use our templates)
3. Get notified when conditions match with confidence scores and duration
PHOTOGRAPHY-FIRST WEATHER ALERTS
Unlike generic weather apps, PhotoWeather understands what photographers actually need:
• Fog Probability — Know when morning mist will roll in
• Golden Hour Potential — Atmospheric conditions for that warm glow
• Aurora Quality — Northern lights activity + viewing conditions combined
• Storm Intensity — Chase dramatic skies with confidence
• Coastal Drama Score — Wave height meets atmospheric mood
POWERFUL RULE BUILDER
Create precise conditions with 80+ weather parameters:
Core Weather (31 fields):
— Temperature, humidity, wind speed & direction, gusts
— Cloud cover by layer (total, low, mid, high)
— Visibility, precipitation, pressure, dewpoint spread
— Snow depth, CAPE, UV index, sunshine duration
Astronomical (16 fields):
— Sunrise, sunset, golden hour, blue hour
— Moon phase, altitude, azimuth, illumination
— Milky Way visibility and altitude
— Civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight
Pro-Exclusive Data (40+ fields):
— Upper air dynamics: wind shear, vorticity, vertical motion
— Aerosol: dust, smoke, sea salt, AOD
— Ensemble clouds: clear probability, cloud uncertainty
— Marine: wave height, swell, wind waves, periods
Advanced Conditions (11+ fields):
— Fog probability, golden hour potential, frost probability
— Aurora quality, storm intensity, cloud drama score
— Rainbow probability, coastal drama, atmospheric clarity
Combine conditions with AND/OR/NOT logic. Example: "Golden hour + 20-60% cloud cover + wind under 7 m/s + visibility over 8km"
SMART NOTIFICATIONS
