PhotoWeather: Turn weather forecasts into shootable photo windows
Stop checking weather apps every hour hoping for perfect conditions. PhotoWeather monitors forecasts 24/7 and alerts you only when the weather matches your photography needs. THE PROBLEM You’ve driven hours to find flat light and clear skies—or missed sunrise fog because you didn’t check at 5 AM. PhotoWeather helps you catch those fleeting moments. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add locations 2. Create rules (or use templates) 3. Get alerts with confidence scores + how long conditions last PHOTOGRAPHY-FIRST ALERTS - Fog (morning mist) - Golden hour (warm glow conditions) - Aurora (activity + viewing conditions) - Storm intensity (dramatic skies) - Coastal drama (waves + atmosphere) and many more ready made templates to choose from POWERFUL RULE BUILDER (80+ parameters) Core weather: temp, humidity, wind, clouds by layer, visibility, precip, pressure, dewpoint spread, snow depth, CAPE, sunshine, etc. Astronomy: sunrise/sunset, golden & blue hour, moon phase/alt/az, twilight, Milky Way altitude. Pro data: upper-air dynamics, aerosols, ensemble uncertainty, marine (waves/swell). Logic: AND / OR / NOT. Example: “Golden hour + 20–60% clouds + wind <7 m/s + visibility >8 km”. SMART NOTIFICATIONS - Period-based alerts (start/end time) - Trigger breakdown (what matched) - Daily digest + quiet hours CALENDAR INTEGRATION Subscribe via iCal to Apple/Google Calendar—events update as forecasts change.
