DESCRIPTION
Use UptoPlay to play online the game Clear Outside.
Reliable weather forecasts for astronomers with an emphasis on cloud cover.
Features include:
Seven day hourly forecasts, updated hourly.
Low, medium, high and total cloud cover.
Moon rise/set times and phase.
Sun rise/set and transit.
Civil/nautical/astronomical darkness.
International Space Station (ISS) pass-over information.
Location search automatically provides a forecast for your location.
Save favourite locations for easy access.
Covers daytime too so also useful for solar observers/imagers.
Updated hourly. Frequent hourly updates are important because often the clear spell between showers provides excellent seeing and 30-minutes under a clear sky with a grab-&-go telescopes is pure gold!
Did you notice the ISS pass-over information? The times are precisely calculated for your location and displayed alongside the cloud forecasts so it has never been easier to observe. It is our favourite feature :-)
Also includes regular weather data (wind, rain, frost, temperature, dew point, etc) so perfect for those wanting a detailed weather forecast, without cutesy graphics.
We have had a lot of fun building and testing Clear Outside and are keen to to develop it further so if you find it useful or have suggestions, please let us know.
Enjoy with UptoPlay the online game Clear Outside.

Accurate about 30 percent of the time. I've used this app for about two years and have noticed forecast get more inaccurate. Predicted a mixture of high and medium clouds, but arrived to a clear sky. Very disappointing. Deleted.
Sometimes it's right. Sometimes it's completely wrong. For example, my area is supposed to be clear right now. It is 100% overcast. If it can't get the current conditions correct, how can it predict future cloud cover. Very frustrating!
I love the app, however it is throwing warnings due to version of Android (12) on my pixel 6 pro. Seems to work ok for now though.
A very useful tool, but lacks a few critical details. A legend of sorts would be nice(is the wind in mph or km/s? Who knows!) it would also be nice to be able to set units to your preference. I know SI is Celsius, but for the air temperature, Fahrenheit is the superior unit. The saved location function is un-intuitive, but if you are willing to use your latitude and longitude, it does work well enough. Free is nice, but I would be willing to pay for a more polished app.
This is an excellent free app. It appears to be very accurate. Works fine on my phone, but it is a bit buggy on my Chromebook. I was able to set a location, but when running the app in full screen, it tends to lock up. Hopefully this will be fixed in a future version. It does work on a Chromebook as long as you do not run in it full screen. Great app. Thanks.'
