VeloBriefing compares Apple Weather with MET Norway along your route and turns them into one briefing: rain, wind and traffic, hour by hour, where you will be.
Free to download. No account, no ads, no tracking.
Each point shows the rain at the hour you reach it, and the wind relative to your direction.

Rain
VeloBriefing checks the rain at your start, your waypoint and your turnaround at the hour you actually reach each one. From drizzle to heavy rain, and whether the sources agree.
Wind
Headwind, crosswind or tailwind on every stretch of the route, with gusts, so you know where the ride will push back.
TrafficPro
See how busy the roads on your route usually are at the hour you ride, based on Apple Maps patterns. A pattern, not live traffic.
PlanningPro
Slide the departure time, compare start times side by side and plan across the week. Tap any card for the hour-by-hour detail.
Apple WatchPro
The Apple Watch app brings your rides and forecasts to your wrist, with complications for your watch face. The full briefing is part of Pro.
Widgets, Siri and alerts
Widgets on the Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy, Control Center, Siri, Shortcuts and Spotlight. Alerts the evening before, 2 hours before and when the forecast flips.
