Why MeteoSwiss Is My Go-To Weather App in the Alps

Perfect for anyone spending time in Switzerland, this app delivers hyper-local forecasts with stunning clarity. I rely on it for everything from weekend hiking plans to severe weather alerts that actually work. The radar resolution alone puts most global apps to shame.

My Full Experience

Living in Zurich means dealing with microclimates that can change within kilometers—something generic weather apps completely miss. MeteoSwiss solves this with pinpoint accuracy: I can check conditions for Uetliberg versus the city center and get genuinely different forecasts. The side-by-side location comparison is brilliant for trip planning; last month I avoided a downpour in Lucerne by checking three spots along the route simultaneously. The warning system once alerted me about hail 40 minutes before it hit, giving me just enough time to move my motorcycle under cover. My only minor gripe is that the widget could show more info at a glance, but that’s nitpicking. Whether you’re a local prepping for a ski day or a tourist navigating the Jungfrau region, this is the most reliable tool you’ll find. The animations aren’t just pretty—they actually help visualize storm movements in real time.

Been using this app for a few days and it does everything. From high-level weather forecast to detailed. You can add as many locations as you want, see them side by side. Plus it has nice animations and looks sleek! God job on MeteoSchweiz for releasing this app. Best iPhone weather app for Switzerland Been using this app for a few days and it does everything.

The Swiss provide a level of resolution in their radar and forecasting that should serve as a model for the rest of the world. Even living in neighboring France, this is the app I use.
