Frost Watch

Estimate garden frost risk using weather factors and plant thresholds.

Our take

Useful as an extra planning aid alongside local observations

Risk explanations, plant selections and scheduled notifications focus on overnight preparation.

Keep in mind: Ground temperatures and 0–10 scores are model estimates, not sensors or guaranteed plant/pipe protection. Release notes switch to WeatherKit despite older Open-Meteo wording.

What you can do

  • Ground/air estimates and risk factors
  • Seven-day views and selected-plant alerts
  • Evening notifications and widgets

Good for

  • Gardeners comparing forecasts with their own site conditions

Consider alternatives for

  • A calibrated ground sensor or guaranteed freeze protection

Limitations & considerations

  • Ground temperatures and 0–10 scores are model estimates, not sensors or guaranteed plant/pipe protection. Release notes switch to WeatherKit despite older Open-Meteo wording.

Privacy & permissions

Publisher says no account/tracking and local user data; weather lookup still involves a provider and location. Review notification visibility and selected place.
