App Description

Putting the full power of the Florida Automated Weather
Network (FAWN) in your pocket.

REAL-TIME STATION DATA
Monitor current conditions at FAWN and Grower network
stations across Florida. View temperature, humidity,
wind speed, rainfall, ET, dew point, pressure,
radiation, soil temperature, wet bulb, and THI —
updated automatically and displayed in a clean,
easy-to-read card layout.

WEATHER HISTORY
Review 7-day observation history with interactive line
charts. Track air temperature, soil temperature, wet
bulb, humidity, wind speed, dew point, rainfall, and
pressure trends over time.

FORECAST
Get 48-hour NWS hourly forecasts tied to your station
location. The Forecast Tracker overlays observed
temperatures against NWS predictions so you can
evaluate forecast accuracy at your exact location.

COLD PROTECTION TOOLS
Know your freeze risk before it happens. The Irrigation
Risk screen rates evaporative cooling risk from None to
Extreme based on current air temperature, wet bulb
temperature, and wind speed. A 48-hour forecast risk
table helps you plan ahead. Built on the University of
Florida IFAS evaporative cooling model.

IRRIGATION SCHEDULERS (FAWN Stations)
Generate personalised 2-week irrigation schedules for
three crop types:

• Strawberry — enter between-row spacing, planting and
harvest dates, system rate, and efficiency to get
your daily irrigation duration and crop coefficient.

• Vegetable — supports Summer Squash, Tomato, and
Watermelon with stage-based crop coefficients
calculated from days after planting.

• Citrus MicroSprinkler — full root-length water
balance model accounting for tree spacing, emitter
diameter, pattern, flow rate, soil type, irrigation
depth, and trigger depth. Get irrigation frequency,
duration, and rain delay recommendations for five
rainfall scenarios.

All schedulers use a live 5-day mean ET value fetched
directly from FAWN, with automatic missing-date repair
from the two nearest neighbour stations.

FAVORITES & MAP
Save your most-used stations as favorites for instant
access. View all FAWN and Grower stations on an
interactive map.

Built by the University of Florida IFAS for Florida's
farming community.
