BOM Weather

Get Australia's official weather forecasts with BOM Weather, the free, ad-free app from the Bureau of Meteorology. Stay informed with hourly and 7-day forecasts, interactive radar, and real-time warnings — all without needing an internet connection.

Access comprehensive current weather data including temperature, 'feels like' readings, wind speed and direction, humidity, and rainfall totals. The local text forecast gives you detailed insight into what to expect, while hourly forecasts for the next 72 hours break down temperature, wind, gust, humidity, dew point, and rain minute by minute. For coastal users, wave height and direction are included, alongside tides and waters forecasts.

Planning ahead is easy with the 7-day forecast view, plus sunrise and sunset times, UV index, and moon phase information. If fire danger is a concern in your area, fire danger ratings are displayed prominently. The interactive radar map lets you see rainfall up to 90 minutes into the past and future, helping you track approaching weather systems across Australia. Pan and zoom freely to any location, with optimal coverage areas highlighted.

Stay protected with warning notifications for up to 3 locations around Australia. Receive alerts for coastal hazards, fire weather, floods, heatwaves, marine wind, severe thunderstorms, tropical cyclones, and tsunamis — all customisable to your chosen areas. The map view displays active warnings with full details just a tap away.

Widgets put weather at a glance on your home screen. Add single or multiple widgets for your current location or any favourite locations saved in the app. Each widget displays current, minimum, and maximum temperatures plus additional details relevant to your area.

Offline mode means you can access previously loaded weather data when you're without internet. Save your favourite locations across Australia for quick access, use automatic location detection, or search any address. Past weather data covering the last 72 hours shows temperature, wind, and rainfall trends, while historical highs and lows provide context for current conditions.
