Weather on the Way is the roadtrip app I never knew I needed
I take a lot of road trips, but I never knew Weather on the Way existed until this week and it's a simple concept. Put in an address for where you'd like to go and the app plots the route using Apple Maps then looks up the weather along the way as well as highlights any road closures or warnings. It even works in CarPlay!
Above you'll see a screenshot of me putting in Moab, Utah as a destination and it highlights two mountain passes where there are current weather warnings, along with the predicted temps when I arrive at each place.
I'm on a free trial and I'm not sure I'd subscribe to it long-term, but it certainly could come in handy on some long road trips, especially in the planning stages.
Update: here's an interesting screenshot of the app in use, during a trip, to figure out if I could get over a couple mountain passes. It clearly showed me they stayed above freezing.
