A Day Away: Weather Alerts

Custom Weather Alerts for Outdoor lovers! Photographers! Stargazers!

If checking the forecast every day is your thing - there's hundreds of apps out there just for you. But if you enjoy spontaneity, and can't always remember that you wanted to go to the beach (or hiking, swimming, skiing, etc.) whenever the weather is going to be nice - A Day Away is the app for you.

Set it and forget it. Create an alert once — for perfect beach day conditions, ideal hiking weather, ski powder day, stargazing nights, or anything in between. A Day Away monitors the forecast and sends you a notification the moment conditions match what you're looking for. We check precise hour-by-hour forecasts so you get alerted when conditions are right during the time that actually matters for your activity. No need to obsessively check the weather. When the time is right, we'll let you know.

Choose your experience. Start free with one alert using our thoughtfully designed premade condition filters — we've done the work to cover the most common (and fun) scenarios. Want to create multiple alerts or build fully custom condition combinations? Upgrade to Pro and unlock unlimited alerts and complete flexibility to define exactly what "perfect weather" means for you.

Precise conditions. Your way. Select from pre-built alerts (temperature, rain, wind, snow, clouds, and rainbow days) or go Pro to combine any conditions you want. A Day Away checks hourly forecasts within your chosen date range and days of the week, so you're not waiting for a "perfect day" that never quite happens — we find the perfect hours.

Never miss the perfect day. Whether it's a surprise ski trip, a last-minute beach day, clear skies for stargazing, when the International Space Station passes overhead, or when the wildflowers are blooming and the light is golden (rainbow alerts, anyone?), A Day Away keeps your plans top-of-mind. Search by city or ZIP code, and get instant notifications when the stars align.

Works for anything. Weather conditions for:
- Outdoor activities (hiking, skiing, swimming, cycling)
- Stargazing and astronomy (clear skies, ISS visibility windows)
- Photography (golden hour rainbows, dramatic clouds, sunrise/sunset conditions)
- Gardening and plant care
- Flying drones
- Literally anything tied to the weather

Currently available for locations across the USA, powered by the most detailed hourly forecasts available.
