About WeatherAU Forecast
WeatherAU is the weather app built specifically for Australians, powered by a custom forecast engine that blends ECMWF, GFS, and ICON models into a single Pro Blend forecast for maximum accuracy.
FORECASTS
Up to 15-day forecasts, including Long Range up to 5 weeks. An hourly strip on Home shows the day ahead. Choose your preferred weather model: ECMWF, GFS, ICON, or our exclusive Pro Blend.
APPLE WATCH
Your weather on your wrist. See your town, page through your saved towns, or check "Here" for wherever you are right now. Add complications to your watch face: follow your iPhone's town, pin a specific town, or use My Location.
WIDGETS
Forecast widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen in small, medium and large sizes, with the next few hours and the days ahead. Pick any town for each widget, or have it follow the app. A Tides widget shows the tide curve, height and next high and low for your port.
LIVE RADAR
Animated radar with smooth frame playback, covering the whole country. Rain nearby push notifications and a Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island tell you when rain is on its way.
TIDES
Tide charts for ports across Australia. See upcoming tide extremes, hourly tide heights, and marine conditions at a glance.
FISHING CONDITIONS
Town-by-town 3-day fishing forecasts across Australia. Hourly bite scores, wind, swell, tide state, water temperature, pressure trend, and solunar periods.
Fish identification: just take a photo and the app will do the rest!
MY SPOTS
Save your personal fishing marks with a tap. Each spot stores your GPS coordinates so you can track conditions exactly where you fish.
CATCH LOG
Log every catch against a spot: record the species, number caught, and date. Weather conditions at the time (temperature, wind, pressure, tide state) are automatically captured from the nearest station, so you build a real picture of what's working and when.
FIRE DANGER
Real-time fire danger ratings for every Australian district. Pin your district for quick access. Severity-sorted list with search and state filter.
OBSERVATIONS
Live station observations and history charts: temperature, rain, wind, humidity, and pressure over the past 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
RAINFALL MAP
Australia-wide rainfall map for all models. Total accumulations, step by step.
WARNINGS

Latest updates

Made for iPhone Duo
WeatherAU now makes the most of both screens. Unfold it and the forecast spreads out side by side, with today’s conditions, live observations and the days ahead all in view at once. Fold it and you get a tidy single column for a quick look on the go.
Four new widgets
Fire Danger: today’s rating for your district and what it means.
UV & Sun: today’s peak UV and when you’ll need protection.
What to Wear: a quick verdict on layers, hat and sunnies for the day.
Fishing: the best bite times for your fishing spot over the next few hours.
Each one can follow your town in the app or stay on a town you choose.
Watch the clouds move
The radar card now has a Satellite view. Switch to it to see an animated loop of cloud moving across the country, then switch back to radar to see rain near you.
Storm risk at a glance
Days with a chance of storms now show a storm badge on the forecast, so you can plan around them without opening each day.
Your town can follow you
Turn on background updates in Settings › Location and your town, widgets and Apple Watch update as you travel, without opening the app. It’s off unless you switch it on.
Apple Watch improvements
See the weather where you are, using your watch’s location.
Tap a complication to go straight to that town.
Also in this update
Improvements to rain nearby, tides and location setup, plus bug fixes and performance improvements.
