I am curious what apps/services you guys use to look up the weather forecast in the places you’re hiking to. I partially use OpenSnow, but the free version is not very detailed.

Windy if I want to view maps of snow totals etc.

What about for general weather prediction

Weather.gov and then I use RadarScope (iOS app) for radar and try to make my own judgements based on that.

Making own judgements? No way! I need information presented to me on a silver platter 😂

Hah… my problem became that I’d get three different answers from three different forecast services. So I figured I’d do it myself and then I only have myself to blame if the weather isn’t what I expected.

Next time I need a weather prediction, I’m asking you to figure it out for me. That way, I’ll have YOU to blame 😂
