Weather, explained.
Other weather apps give you the play-by-play. We add the color commentary. Sky, your AI weather guide, explains the science behind the forecast—and the uncertainty behind the science.
Your AI weather guide.
Sky pulls the models, the radar, and the forecaster's own notes into one weather story—and explains the why. Storm timing, why it's so humid, what a front actually does. In plain language, no jargon.
Ask why. Get a straight answer.
Ask Sky anything about your weather—even how sure the forecast is. Sky shows you the spread across the model runs, and explains what's driving it.
The whole story behind the day.
Go past the one-line read: Sky narrates the full picture—what's building, what the forecaster is watching, and what it means for you—in a story you can actually follow. It's waiting for you every morning.
Your day, in a sentence.
Open to a one-line read on what's ahead—warm, gusty, rain by midnight—right under the current conditions. Tap through for the full story.
Get curious. Go deeper.
Tap a concept to understand the forces behind your weather—pressure ridges, ocean heat, why mountains make rain. Real meteorology, made approachable.
Honest about uncertainty.
When forecasters flag doubt or the models split, you'll know—and see why. No faking a confidence the forecast doesn't have.
Grounded in what's real.
We aren't trying to predict the weather better than everyone else. We're trying to describe what's actually happening where you are—and say so when the forecast and reality disagree.
Rain on its way, or just passing by?
Sky watches the live radar and tells you what's actually happening: rain on its way, rain passing you by, or nothing close at all. It tracks how the rain is moving, checks nearby weather stations, and tells you plainly when the forecast and the radar disagree.
See where the forecast could go.
When the forecast is genuinely uncertain, open it up: what the forecasters are saying in their own words, and how the model runs split—"35 runs keep the rain going until 3 AM, 16 dry out by 1."
What's actually happening.
Beyond the model, Why Weather pulls real conditions from nearby stations and radar—so "now" reflects the sky outside, not just a forecast.

A forecast you can read at a glance.
Built to be felt, not decoded—so the stuff that matters lands in a beat.
A view that reads the room.
When skies are quiet, the full forecast sits front and center. When something's brewing, the map eases up so you can see it coming. When it's serious, the radar takes the lead—no tapping required.
Data you can feel, not decode.
Hourly and daily forecasts laid out to read at a glance—temperature, rain, wind, and sun, clear in a beat. Ten days ahead, with how the week compares to normal.
See it coming.
Animated radar, plus future radar, wind, and temperature maps with Premium—and smart prompts to ask Sky about what's on the map.
More of the why.
Why Weather is free, with three questions to Sky a day. Premium makes Sky unlimited and adds the features marked below.
Rain, on your lock screen.
When rain is coming, a Live Activity on your lock screen and in the Dynamic Island shows what it's doing over the next hour—when it starts, how hard, and when it eases. It updates on its own, then steps aside when the rain is done.
How unusual is this?
At the top of your 10-day forecast, a quick read on how the week compares to normal. Tap it, and Sky puts the week in context: how it ranks against the last 30 years for the same dates, which years ran warmest, and how your month has changed decade by decade—the climate story behind your forecast.
Humidity and pressure, translated.
What does 73% humidity actually feel like? Is 29.91 inches of pressure good news? The air today turns those numbers into words you can use—dry or muggy, steady or falling—with the trend behind them and a sentence on what it means for your day.
Your weather, at a glance.
Home and lock screen widgets, with a daily headline from Sky. Premium adds Sky's full daily brief and a rain countdown on your lock screen.
Weather worth understanding.
