Pricing
Pay once a year: one pack is less than a dollar a week. No app, no contract, no monthly plan. Cancel online anytime. For places in New England, New York and Pennsylvania.
Why pay when your weather app is free? Your phone warns you about the weather where your phone is. We watch your place, even when you're not there, and send what weather apps don't.
Pick any of the six. One place, plus the Sunday email.
- Home, Land & Garden: when deep cold or a storm heads for your house or camp, snow gets heavy on the roof, the weather turns right for ice dams, hail falls nearby, or frost is coming for the garden.
- Farm & Barn: when tonight calls for a different blanket on the horses, a night will be hard on the hens, the bees can fly, or a dry stretch opens to make hay.
- Hunting: when pheasants go out near you, a permit deadline is coming, a season opens in your state, or a cold front should move ducks.
- Fishing & Boating: when trout are stocked near you, a dam starts releasing, the ice should go out, or a storm heads for your boat.
- Foraging & Beachcombing: when storm seas ease before a daylight low tide (sea glass time), the lowest tides come, shellfish areas reopen, or the sap should run.
- Wildlife & Nature: when hawks should fly at the watches near you, snow geese pile into Middle Creek, seals haul out on low tides, or blossoms peak.
All six packs, for your home and the camp. Two packs on their own would be $98.
- All six packs: Home, Land & Garden · Farm & Barn · Hunting · Fishing & Boating · Foraging & Beachcombing · Wildlife & Nature
- Two places: your home, plus a camp, cabin, boat or a parent's house. Deep cold, heavy roof snow or a storm warning there reaches you at home.
- A second inbox, and you choose who gets each pack: you, the other person, or both
- Still at most 3 alert emails a day per inbox, plus the 6 am morning email
- The Sunday email
The Weekly Almanac every Sunday morning, plus free alerts for waterfalls running after rain, meteor showers with clear skies, and fishing and hunting license renewals. No card.

We email only when something changes at your place: at most 3 alert emails a day, alerts that come together share one email, and nothing from 9 pm to 6 am. Routine alerts wait for one 6 am morning email. After you buy, every alert has its own on/off switch on your setup and account pages. Each pack's page shows a real year, month by month.
Renewal
Once a year, at the same price, until you cancel. We email you about 30 days before. Cancel online anytime on your account page; alerts continue to the end of the year you paid for.
