Climate Compass builds tools that turn historical and real-time weather data into actionable insights. Our first product, WeatherAway, helps you plan trips by comparing destinations using 20 years of climate data. Free, currently covering Europe.
Two tools: Climate Explorer for comparing destinations by weather, climate and natural phenomena, and Aurora Explorer for planning northern lights trips.
Visit weatheraway.com →Monthly climate averages computed from 20 years of NOAA station data combined with ERA5 reanalysis data. Currently covers Europe and a few other popular destinations. We are looking to expand soon.
Browse destinations on a map with filters for temperature, sunshine, rainfall, and seasonal phenomena.
Temperature, sunshine hours, rainfall probability, cloud cover, and day length for each month.
Composite scores weighted by temperature, sunshine, rainfall, and seasonal suitability.
Curated calendars for cherry blossoms, autumn foliage, whale migration, wildflowers, and ski seasons. Research-based date ranges, not real-time observations.
Which airlines fly the route, which months the route is active, and whether direct flights exist. Plus public holiday calendars. Not pricing or seat availability.
OpenWeather 8-day forecast shown alongside historical climate averages for context.
Aurora probabilities computed from historical space weather data, satellite observations, and location-specific station and reanalysis cloud data. Plan a year ahead with climatological trip probabilities, or use real-time forecasts for the days ahead.
Probability of seeing aurora on any given night, or at least once during a trip of any length at any time of year. Out trip odds are calculated using a statistical persistence model, not simply independent nightly odds.
NOAA Kp forecasts with Met Office and OpenWeather cloud forecasts, darkness hours, and lunar phase for each night. Available for all destinations.
Moon phase calendar and monthly darkness hours. Useful since aurora viewing requires dark skies and moonlight washes out faint displays.
We're co-founders with backgrounds in climate science and software engineering. At Climate Compass, we build practical tools that turn historical data and trends into useful insights.
Founded in 2024 and driven by a shared passion for data, science, and meteorology, our mission is to help people and businesses make informed decisions backed by statistics and models, not sentiment.
We bring together expertise in climate science, data visualisation, and software engineering.
