This app shows you a snapshot of the weather along your road trip route as well as any weather alerts that would be in effect when you pass through. We tested out 3 apps that allow you to easily check the weather along your driving route to help you arrive safely at your destination.

There are several weather apps for road trips out there for both iPhone and Android. These apps helped us pick the safest route and plan our departure time appropriately to avoid inclement weather conditions. I found weather apps that can show you the weather forecast for each location at the time you are expected to pass through them. It was a pain.īut I then found exactly what I was looking for. With these apps, I had to think about when we would be in specific cities and then look up each forecast for that specific day and time. It was not easy to find the information I needed using traditional weather apps like Accuweather or Dark Sky. Because we were traveling in the winter, we wanted to make sure we weren’t going to run into any snowstorms, especially in the mountainous regions. We realized the importance of this on a recent December road trip from Milwaukee, WI to Utah. Knowing the driving conditions in advance of your road trip will help you choose the safest route and give you peace of mind. As you are about to embark on your road trip, you’ll probably want to know what kind of weather you’ll encounter along your route.
