Ubuntu Weather
Dietrich Gunther Lubbe
Ubuntu Weather — built for South African weather, by a Joburg developer. SAWS severe weather warnings. Lightning alerts the moment EUMETSAT detects a strike near you. A live wind map and satellite maps. Hourly and 14-day forecasts, a morning briefing, coastal tides, a proper moon page, sport fixtures with the weather at each venue, and solar forecasts for your panels. And the only weather app with a Braai Gauge™. FREE • Hourly and 14-day forecasts with rain chance, temperature and rain charts • Morning briefing — a daily notification with your high and low, when rain is likely, UV and strong wind, at the time you choose • Live wind on your Home screen — wind streaks flowing over your area, with the speed, direction and gusts where you are • Braai Gauge™ plus activity scores for pool days, hiking, fishing and gardening • Share today's weather as a card to WhatsApp, family groups and friends • Tap Humidity, UV, Pressure or Air Quality for 24-hour charts and tips — today's UV peak and when to cover up, pressure trends, and PM2.5, PM10, ozone and NO₂ against WHO guidelines • Moon page — a real photo of tonight's moon, shaded to its phase and shown the right way up for the southern hemisphere, with the dates and times of the next full, new and quarter moons. Moon phase on every day of the 14-day forecast too • Live altitude, steadied by your iPhone's barometer, plus the air pressure measured right where you are • Coastal tide times 14 days ahead for seaside spots around South Africa • Live EUMETSAT infrared satellite imagery • Sport fixtures with the forecast at each venue — rugby, soccer, cricket, F1, MotoGP, tennis and golf • Solar production forecast for your PV panels — today's curve and the week ahead • Make Home your own — reorder the cards and hide the ones you don't need • Home-screen and lock-screen widgets for weather, solar and fixtures • Background photos that reflect where you are • Know when SAWS warnings are active for your area PREMIUM — R29/month, R299/year or R499 once-off for lifetime • Full SAWS severe weather warnings, with push notifications the moment one is issued for your area • Lightning push alerts with distance and direction when strikes are detected near you • Full-screen wind map — the 3-day wind forecast animated across southern Africa, with gusts for any spot you tap • Every satellite map layer — true colour, satellite rain estimates, convection and thunderstorm tracking, K-index, lightning and active fires • No ads WHY UBUNTU WEATHER Apple Weather is fine, but it doesn't know about SAWS warnings, doesn't push lightning alerts when a Highveld storm rolls in, doesn't show you the wind blowing across the country, doesn't track your solar production, doesn't tell you whether Saturday is braai weather, and doesn't show the weather at the venue for the afternoon's rugby. Ubuntu Weather does all of that. GOT AN IDEA? Use Suggestions in the menu to send us ideas, bug reports and screenshots — we read every one.
