Conditions on this page are recalculated from the latest forecast every time it is opened, for the current date in the location's own time zone.
Outdoor Comfort is the general-purpose score for time spent outside without a specific sport attached — a walk, a coffee on a terrace, a park afternoon, a day of errands on foot. It is built primarily around apparent temperature rather than the raw reading, because at low activity levels wind and humidity dominate what you actually feel; a still 14 degree day and a windy 14 degree day are a jumper apart. The comfortable band for sedentary outdoor time is roughly 18 to 26 degrees apparent, notably higher than the hiking or running optimum precisely because you are not generating your own heat. Precipitation is weighted by intensity rather than probability alone, since light drizzle rarely ends a walk while 8 millimetres an hour reliably does. Wind is penalised above 25 kilometres per hour and heavily above 40, where outdoor seating and anything loose stops being viable. UV shapes the timing advice rather than the verdict. Severe weather codes block a positive verdict outright. The output is a score, a Go, Wait or Skip verdict, the best continuous window today, a what-to-wear line calibrated to the apparent temperature, and a short list of the activities today genuinely suits. Where the day is mixed, we say which half is worth using instead of averaging it into a bland middling answer.
Scores are capped by dealbreakers — heavy rain, dangerous wind, thick fog or hazardous UV pull a day down no matter how pleasant the rest of the numbers look.
