One of the main skills of a landscape photographer is being there at the right time.
That usually means checking multiple weather apps, trying not to miss fog, rain clearing, clouds, tides, moonrise, etc. It is tiring, and it is easy to forget or miss the window.
That's why I built PhotoSignal - a web app for photography weather alerts.
Basic account is free.
I’ve just launched it, so I’d appreciate any feedback.
@antongorlin List of what data sources Finnish weather data company uses in their services across the world: https://www.foreca.com/data-sources
"In total, Foreca gathers and fuses 50+ different data sources world-wide."
@antongorlin They also have an API, so that is one option for future if there are issues with Open Meteo.

"Global coverage - weather forecasts for every coordinate in the world."
@antongorlin
Does it feature:
- plant bloom,
- vegetation status,
- weather radar,
- sun path,
- social events,
- OSINT?
(I'm joking, but as an ex-proamateur photographer only slightly.)
10 minutes later and no verification email?
@antongorlin excellent idea. I tried to set up home assistant alerts for fog based on BOM data, but this is much better.
Verification email took a few min, the link said expired when i used it immediately after, but i was logged in fine anyway. (Was on ios). First alert set up no problem.
Just one question - alerts are only real time i guess? No chance that, for example, a fog prediction would come up the night before so you could set an early alarm??
Good to see Kp in there. Add in Bt and Bz?
This idea has great promise.
