GoworthyWhat Goworthy checks for every activity
Goworthy reads one forecast eighteen different ways, one for each activity, and turns it into a plain GO, CAUTION or NO-GO. Here is what it weighs for each, and where to dig deeper.
Beach
A day on the sand wants warmth without too much wind. Goworthy weighs the temperature and UV, the breeze off the water and the cloud, so you know if the sunbed is worth it.
Shelling
Beachcombing is a tide game. Goworthy finds the low-water windows when the strand line is freshest, marks the spring tides when the sea drops furthest, and the calm mornings after a blow when new shells wash in.
Terrace
For a drink or a meal outside, small things decide it. Goworthy weighs the warmth, the sun, the wind that unsettles a table and any rain, then calls the comfortable hours.
SUP
Flat, calm water makes a paddle. Goworthy weighs the waves and swell period and the wind, and warns you plainly when the breeze blows offshore, with thresholds informed by RNLI safety guidance.
Kite
Kite flying wants steady wind, not a gale and not a dead calm. Goworthy watches the wind and the gust spread that makes a kite hard to hold, at the coast or an open field inland.
Drone
Drones dislike wind and wet. Goworthy checks the gusts near the ground, the wind higher up and the rain risk, so you know before you unfold the props, not after.
Golden hour
The best light sits at the edges of the day. Goworthy computes first light, golden hour, sunset and blue hour on-device and reads the cloud, and it can ping you the evening before when tomorrow's sunrise looks golden, so you know when to set the alarm.
Forest
A calm walk under the trees wants gentle conditions. Goworthy weighs the feels-like warmth, the rain and the wind that brings branches down, then points to the still, dry hours.
Hike
The hills reward the prepared. Goworthy weighs wind on exposed ground, thunderstorm risk, visibility and the freezing level for higher routes. Open the full hiking guide for the detail.
Walking
An everyday walk gets judged kindly. Goworthy weighs the feels-like temperature, the rain on the way and the wind, so an easy stroll gets the nod on a day a hike would not, and after dark it reminds you to wear lights.
Snow
A read on snow conditions, not a piste or avalanche service. Goworthy weighs fresh snowfall, the depth already down, the temperature and the rain-to-snow line, hour by hour.
Stargazing
Dark, clear skies make the night. Goworthy tracks the cloud after dark, the true-dark window and how bright the moon will be, so you head out when the stars are actually out.
Surf
It comes down to the swell and the wind. Goworthy weighs the wave height and period, whether the wind is on or offshore, and the sea state, so you know if it is worth waxing the board.
Sailing
Sailing wants wind you can trust. Goworthy weighs the wind strength and steadiness, the gusts, the sea state and visibility, for a good, safe day out under sail.
Fishing
Fish bite on the conditions, not the calendar. Goworthy weighs the wind and sea state, the tide, and the pressure trend that turns a bite on or off. Open the full fishing guide for more.
Cycling
On a bike the wind sets the tone. Goworthy weighs the headwind and gusts, the rain and the feels-like temperature, and after dark it reminds you to ride with lights. Open the full cycling guide for the detail.
Running
Comfort makes or breaks a run. Goworthy weighs the heat and feels-like temperature, the wind you push into, the rain and the UV, and after dark it reminds you to wear lights. Open the full running guide for more.
Golf
A round lives and dies on wind and rain. Goworthy weighs the wind and the gust spread, the rain on the way and the feels-like comfort. Open the full golf guide for the detail.
