WillyWeather is a feature rich weather app that includes BoM radar and satellite, detailed wind, rain, tide, swell and UV forecasts, as well as moon phases, and sunrise and sunset times.


If you're having any issues, please send an email to support@willyweather.com.


WillyWeather delivers the most accurate local weather data from best in class weather providers including the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM). Going beyond the average weather service, we process and fine-tune forecast data to the specific coordinates of over 17,000 Australian locations including all suburbs, towns, beaches, rivers, parks, lakes and islands.


Weather - Seven day BoM weather forecasts tailored to each location including min/max temperatures, hourly temperature forecasts and detailed weather descriptions.
Radar - Raw BoM radar data, refined, processed and integrated with Google Maps.
Satellite - National satellite view, displaying cloud cover for the entire Australian continent integrated with Google Maps.
Tides - The most comprehensive tide times system in Australia, bringing together BoM standard port data with offsets from the Australian National Tide Tables and various state based marine agencies. Includes every beach in Australia, and many river systems and inlets.
Wind - An amalgamation of the most accurate global wind forecast models gathered from the BoM, NOAA and ECMWF, interpolated to the exact coordinates for each location and vetted against real-time wind observations to deliver the best performing information.
UV - Hourly UV index forecasts, including alerts outlining extreme conditions when there is risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
Moon Phases - Full moon and new moon phases, illumination and rise and set times. Deeply integrated with tidal data.
Rainfall - Intuitive visual indication of rainfall probability and intensity for the week ahead, using the latest ACCESS models provided by the BoM.
Swell - Swell height, period and direction for each beach in Australia.
Sunrise/Sunset - Sunrise and sunset times with first light and last light.
Real time observational data - with trends for all locations including current temperature, rain since 9am, rain last hour, humidity, pressure, wind speed, wind direction, wind gusts and dew point.
BoM Warnings - Easily accessible and specifically targeted to the locations affected.


Features
• Interactive rainfall radar and satellite, using Google Maps: pan and zoom like you've always wanted through the national BoM radar network, and continental satellite view to see exactly where rain is falling around you, or your favourite locations. Our mapping features provide more control and more detail than any other Australian weather source.
• Stunning, interactive tide, swell, temperature and wind forecast graphs which allow you to easily understand the conditions at your favourite surf beach, secret fishing spot or upcoming hike - in real-time, and up to seven days in the future. We're particularly proud of our graphs, we pushed the boundaries to provide you with more context, and more detail for each weather type.
• A beautiful, simple and organised interface in which the weather data that is important to you is easy to find, consume and interact with. Our goal was to present accurate and relevant weather information to you, as quickly, and easily as possible.

The location software picks the wrong weather station location. Eg my town is in the lockyer valley region of southeast queensland. Weather comes from gatton uq 20km away 20m elv below. With willy it pulls it from toowoomba 500m elivation above and 40k away and says im on the darling downs.wrong. And now at the same time. Its 29 deg c here not 23 like in like willy says.

I have been using WillyWeather for years, having seen it start as s small unpopular website to now a modern reliable Weather Reporting Company. Having their data derived from BOM but show in a easy to use App is perfect!

First day I've used it and very impressed with the available data on the app. Huge amount of info for free. The only thing that is missing is a widget for android so i can quickly see the weather without going into the app.

Finally, a weather app that looks good AND does the job properly. The app has a simple interface and clean weather summary, but also provides details for when more info is needed. This has quickly become my go-to app for weather. One small suggestion; update the graphs. They provide good info but are from the original website and look dated.

Very inaccurate for the Gold Coast QLD. Been planning travel around the forcasts and it hasn't rained yet! With forcasts of 80-90% chance of rain all week and still nothing. Very poor forcasting!!!

Ohh yeah this app gives all what the weather gods have in store for us ; can scroll maps for local / surrounding areas and interstate weather / warnings etc. Would like to see the inclusion of a lightning tracker ; sourcing info from BOM gives the edge over other apps i have tried ; am back with this app again . This app is the Ducks Nuts for everything need to know weather wise

Please add a Tide Clock widget! Years ago, you destroyed this clock feature on the websites phone version and the replacement still sucks. You can access the tide clock on main site when view desktop version of course but that's inconvenient. It's just JavaScript isn't it? It's already made, put it on phones already!

Brilliant layout of information on mobile ... I've used Willy Weather as my main weather source from my PC for years now ... and this app now extends the features to my mobile ... give the free version a try ... you will love it !!! ... in fact I purchased the app not because I need another weather app on my mobile ... nor are the ads in the free version anonnying ... but to support the app developers after providing me years of easy to access weather information

I have a huawei p9 and installed your app. When I open it, it just shows a loading symbol. Tried re installing it but no such luck fixing the bug. Please help thanks.

Uses BOM data but in clean, simple interface - perfect for mobile. I really like the chart interface and very clear indications of wind strength/direction, and the tide timetable. I think it's much easier to use than BOM.

I think you guys need to create an Android Widget because a lot of the weather widgets for Android are hopeless.
