About DriveWindow
Route weather should match the trip you are actually taking
DriveWindow is an independent route-weather planning product for drivers in the United States and Canada. It compares weather along a drive and helps identify a more practical departure window.

Why DriveWindow exists
A destination forecast cannot describe every condition between two cities. A four-hour drive may cross rain bands, exposed bridges, mountain passes, freezing zones, fog, or severe weather that never reaches the destination.
DriveWindow was built to make that difference visible. The website provides route-specific planning context, while the iPhone and iPad app adds saved trips, reminders, maps, driving profiles, and departure-window comparisons.
Where to get DriveWindow
Download Road Trip Weather: DriveWindow from the App Store listing linked below.
A separate app called DriveWindow: Traffic & Weather Tracker is published by RSquared Apps. It is not connected to this website or the DriveWindow app offered here.
What the product does
- Samples representative forecast points along a route.
- Compares weather risks that can change with departure time.
- Highlights rain, snow, freezing conditions, wind, visibility, severe weather, and night driving.
- Links to official road authorities for closures, restrictions, and verified road conditions.
What it does not do
DriveWindow is not turn-by-turn navigation, an emergency warning service, or an official road-condition system. Forecasts are estimates and can change. Drivers remain responsible for checking alerts and official road information before departure.
