BRUNSWICK

Rain from about 7:45.

About half an hour away, lasting about an hour.

7:158:159:15

14° · overcast

Two instruments, one language

Height is how much. Solidity is how sure.

A drizzle looks like a drizzle and a downpour looks like a downpour — because the bar's height is millimetres and its opacity is the forecast's own confidence. Two variables in one shape, and no legend to read.

The next two hours

Fifteen-minute steps, so you can see the shape of the shower rather than just its name.

The next 24 hours

Hourly, with the heaviest hour named and the night hours sunk a shade — so the day has a shape you can orient by.

What it won't do

It never pretends to know the minute.

The forecast data has a fifteen-minute grain, so Brolly says “about 7:45” and never “in 23 minutes”. A precision the data doesn't have is a lie dressed as helpfulness, and the one time it's wrong is the time you get soaked trusting it.

When it isn't sure, it says so — “a shower is possible, but nothing certain” — instead of inventing a start time to sound confident.

Nothing leaves your phone

No account, no ads, no tracking. Your location fetches a forecast and that is the end of it.

Warned before you leave

Choose 10, 20, 30 or 45 minutes' notice. Quiet hours mean it never wakes you at 3am.

Anywhere, not just here

Save any number of places and check where you're going as well as where you are.

Go now, or wait ten minutes.
