Weather for photographers

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Weather alerts that think like a photographer. PhotoWeather turns raw forecasts into shootable photo windows. Set the conditions worth leaving for, and PhotoWeather watches the forecast for your favorite locations - alerting you when the light, sky, weather, and timing line up. Stop translating “partly cloudy” into guesswork. PhotoWeather helps you know what to shoot, where to go, when the window opens, how long it may last, and why the forecast looks promising. BUILT FOR OUTDOOR PHOTOGRAPHERS Generic weather apps tell you the temperature. PhotoWeather helps you make the go/no-go call for real photography conditions, for example: Dense fog at sunrise Fiery sunset skies Golden hour atmosphere Aurora visibility Dramatic cloudscapes Storm light Rainbow setups Frost and fresh snow Mirror-calm reflections Coastal drama Clear nights for astro Milky Way and moon conditions HOW IT WORKS Save the places you shoot Add beaches, ridges, forests, lakes, dark-sky spots, coastlines, or client locations. Define what makes it worth going Start with 20+ ready-made templates including Fog Hunter, Golden Hour, Painted Sky, Fire Sky, Northern Lights, Milky Way, Storm Chaser, Rainbow Hunter, Mirror Lake, Dramatic Seascapes, First Tracks, and Clearing Storm — or build your own from 90+ weather, light, astronomy, marine, aerosol, and confidence parameters. Get the window before it happens Receive alerts with the expected start time, duration, confidence, and the evidence behind the opportunity. MORE THAN A POINT FORECAST PhotoWeather uses 20+ forecast models and selects the right data for your location instead of relying on one generic forecast. For Pro users, directional and horizon-aware weather intelligence helps detect the sky around your location - not just the weather directly overhead. That matters when you care about incoming cloud breaks, sunset gaps, rainbow geometry, coastal conditions, or light hitting from the horizon. POWERFUL RULE BUILDER Create simple or advanced rules using AND / OR / NOT logic. Example rules: Golden hour + 20–60% cloud cover + light wind Sunrise fog + high humidity + low visibility Aurora activity + clear skies + dark hours Storm clouds + strong gusts + high CAPE Calm lake + low wind + soft morning light Fresh snow in the last 6 hours Coastal drama with waves, wind, and mood Start with templates like fog, golden hour, painted sky, aurora, reflections, storms, astro, frost, and more — then adjust every threshold to match your style. SMART ALERTS Every opportunity includes: Expected start and end time Confidence score Matched condition breakdown Forecast evidence CALENDAR INTEGRATION Subscribe to your photography opportunities in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook, or any calendar app that supports iCal.
