Forecasts from Apple WeatherKit

Your weather app knows your city.
This one knows your drive.

Enter your destination. Road Travel forecasts every stretch of your route for the hour you'll be there — and an AI briefing tells you what your drive will be like and when to leave.

How it works

Three things your weather app can't do.

You already know it'll rain somewhere today. What you don't know is whether it'll be raining at mile 212 when you get there at 4:40pm.

Weather timed to your arrival — not to right now.

The forecast at mile 212 for the hour you'll reach mile 212. One map, one timeline, severity colors.

Your drive, in plain words.

The AI reads the whole route's forecast and gives you one honest verdict — including when to leave.

Built on the real forecast. Your trips never train any model.

It stays with you on the road.

Save trips and sync across devices. Add stops — each timed correctly. While you drive, navigation warns about weather ahead, and says "clear ahead" when it's fine.

The difference

Stop checking ten city forecasts to plan one drive.

This is what planning a Chicago → Denver drive looks like with a normal weather app, and what it looks like here.

One view, every point of the route, at the hour you'll reach it — plus a briefing telling you the Kearney–North Platte stretch is the problem and leaving 90 minutes earlier clears it.

Questions

The things people ask before they try it.

Is it free?
The app is a free download, and Road Travel Pro starts with a free trial — plan real routes, get real AI briefings, and if you cancel before the trial ends you're not charged. You'll enter payment details to start it. After that it's $7.99/month, or $49.99/year — about $4.15/month. Why more than a basic weather app? Every AI briefing runs real computation over your whole route's forecast, timed to your arrival at each point along it.
Where does the weather come from? Does the AI make it up?
Forecasts come from Apple WeatherKit. The AI never predicts weather — it reads the real forecast along your route and explains it. Your trips are never used to train any model.
How is this different from other route weather apps?
Three things. Your trips are saved and synced, so you never re-enter a route you drive twice a year. Multiple stops are timed individually, not estimated from the endpoints. And instead of leaving you to read a wall of icons, an AI briefing gives you one plain-language verdict — including when to leave. Most route weather apps show you the data; this one tells you what to do about it.
Will it work for towing, RVs or trucks?
Yes — wind and severity along the route are exactly why RV drivers use it. Adjustable towing-speed ETAs are on the roadmap.
Do I need an iPhone?
No. You can plan a full trip right here in any browser. The iPhone app adds the part a browser can't do: live weather-ahead alerts while you're actually driving.

Never get surprised by weather 300 miles from home.

What is route-based weather forecasting?

A normal weather forecast answers a question about a place: what will it be like in Denver today? A route forecast answers a question about a journey: what will it be like where I am, when I get there. Those are different questions, and for anyone driving more than a couple of hours the second one is the only one that matters.

Road Travel builds your route, works out roughly when you'll pass each point along it, then pulls the forecast for each of those points at that hour — not for right now. A 700-mile drive that starts in sunshine can end in freezing rain, and the storm you actually need to worry about is usually one that isn't over any of your cities yet when you leave.

That's most valuable when the stakes are highest: towing a trailer into a crosswind, driving a mountain pass in shoulder season, or timing a holiday drive around a front. Those are the cases where "leave two hours earlier" is worth more than any amount of radar-watching.
