Description
Weather doesn't have to be boring. Give your forecasts some personality.
Powered by SpotWx and OpenAI.
NimbusWx is a spot forecasting tool that visualizes the numeric model data from the weather computers used by industry experts. It's powered by the incredibly popular website SpotWx, which is used by professionals all over North America and the world.
***New in Version 1.2: Create your own custom AI weather forecaster - powered by chatGPT
The difference between NimbusWx and other weather products is that we've lifted the veil on forecasts by giving you access to the raw weather data. That raw data is normally inaccessible because it requires special desktop software to open and interpret, we take that data and turn it into a human friendly visual format so you can make forecasts like a pro.
NimbusWx features include:
- Customizable AI weather forecaster. You can control what type of weather data you want to know about, and how the forecaster behaves.
- Select any coordinates on Earth.
- View and compare multiple weather models for your coordinates.
- Save your favourite places for fast viewing.
- See the models simulated altitude, and spatial / temporal resolution.
- View advanced weather metrics.
Models currently available on the mobile version:
- GFS (Global Forecast System)
- RDPS (Regional Deterministic Prediction System)
- HRDPS Continental (High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System)
- HRDPS 1km West (High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System)
- GDPS (Global Deterministic Prediction System)

Ratings and Reviews
Hard pass on this app. Cant even access GFS without subscribing.
Yeah, you get 1 week free but requiring someone to subscribe and not give access to the free model is ludicrous.
Get Windy or Ventusky for access to ECMF, GEMS, GFS, HRRR and a few other models without subscribing to test drive their apps. You also get access to current weather charts, radar, satellite and lightning strike data.
Developer Response ,
Hi Allen, sorry to hear about your experience. There was a bug in the first version but we have since updated it. You shouldn't have any problems accessing the GFS model without subscribing now. If the problem persists please reach out to me through our Facebook page.
Needs much more functionality
Useless until units of measurement (including time) are clearly shown and can be changed.
Developer Response ,
Hey there, you can actually tap and drag on the charts to see a pop up with the time and units :)
