Frequently Asked Questions
What is My OWL Plan™?
My OWL Plan™ is a hyperlocal weather-planning tool that interprets forecast data and turns it into clear, activity-aware insight.
What does “Outdoor Weather Listener” mean?
It reflects how the app works—listening to forecast data and translating it into meaningful insight for real-world use.
Where is it available?
My OWL Plan™ currently covers the continental United States. Alaska and Hawaii are not supported at this time.
How is it different from other weather apps?
Most apps show conditions. My OWL Plan™ helps you understand what those conditions mean for your plans—when they align and when they do not.
How accurate is it?
My OWL Plan™ uses NOAA and National Weather Service data and refines it for near one-mile precision up to a week in advance. Forecasts are not perfect, but the goal is to make them meaningfully more relevant to your decisions.
Where does the data come from?
Forecast data is based in part on NOAA and National Weather Service models, enhanced through My OWL Tech™ analysis.
Can I set preferences for my activities?
Yes. You can define base preferences for activities such as hiking, fishing, photography, outdoor work, and events so the app evaluates the conditions that matter most to you.
Can I adjust preferences for a specific plan?
Yes. Each plan can be tailored for its location, timing, activity, and your specific goals.
What kind of insight does it provide?
My OWL Plan™ highlights when conditions are favorable, how timing affects your plans, and when it may make sense to go, wait, or adjust.
Does this replace official weather alerts?
No. My OWL Plan™ supports planning and decision-making. Always monitor official weather alerts and changing local conditions for safety.
Do I need an internet connection?
Yes. The app relies on current forecast data to provide accurate and timely insight.
