Southerly

Southerly redefines how you interact with weather forecasts by presenting all critical information on a single, intuitive radial dial. Key features include: • Radial infographic for temperature, rain, wind, and day/night cycles • Visual representation of weather trends over 12 hours, 24 hours, or 7 days • Haptic feedback for tactile weather curve exploration • Integrated sunrise/sunset times and UV flag on the dial rim This unique approach allows users to quickly grasp the 'shape' of the coming weather, rather than sifting through endless data lists. The temperature ring, rain bloom, and wind spokes provide an instant visual summary, letting you see at a glance when warmth arrives, rain builds, or winds intensify. A simple swipe of the hand reveals precise hourly conditions. Beyond core forecasting, Southerly offers specialized features, including optional offline tides and navigation details. For users in Aotearoa/New Zealand, the app provides te reo Māori language support and maramataka (Māori lunar calendar) insights, catering to activities such as predator trapping, hunting, and fishing, incorporating Solunar theory for optimal planning. Southerly is ideal for anyone seeking a more visual, interpretive, and less data-intensive way to understand the weather, from outdoor enthusiasts to daily commuters, especially those in New Zealand looking for culturally relevant weather information. It's built for those who prefer to "read the shape" of the forecast.
