Mukoko Weather user guide
weather.mukoko.com is an AI-powered global weather platform — real-time conditions, 7-day forecasts, frost alerts, and contextual advice for farming, mining, travel, and daily life. The core service is free and works without an account.
Your current location
Section titled “Your current location”The home page is your current-location weather. On first visit the app asks once for device location; grant it and the dashboard follows you wherever you are — the MY LOCATION label confirms a GPS fix. If you decline, the app falls back to your last-viewed location or a rough network-based estimate, and you can always search for any place worldwide.
Every named location also has its own shareable page (for example /harare), with dedicated sub-pages:
- Forecast — hour-by-hour and 7-day charts plus sunrise/sunset
- Atmosphere — 24-hour humidity, wind, pressure, and UV trends
- Map — full-screen interactive weather map with precipitation, cloud, temperature, and wind layers
Personalising with My Weather
Section titled “Personalising with My Weather”Open My Weather (map-pin button) to save locations, pick your activities — farming, mining, transport, outdoors, sports, or lifestyle — and set the theme. Activity cards on each location page then show a suitability rating, a 24-hour feasibility trend, and weather-driven tips specific to what you do. The AI summary also uses your selections to ground its advice.
AI insights
Section titled “AI insights”Signed-in users get a Shamwari Weather Insight on every location page — a short, locally grounded summary of what the weather means for the day, with an inline follow-up chat for questions. Weather data itself never requires sign-in; only the AI features, aviation planner, and historical dashboard do.
Community weather reports
Section titled “Community weather reports”Anyone can report what the sky is actually doing — rain, hail, fog, frost, dust, and more — straight from a location page. Reports are cross-checked against the forecast data and shown to everyone nearby for 24–72 hours depending on severity. Community weather stations feed the same pages automatically; see the weather stations guide.
Frequently asked questions
Section titled “Frequently asked questions”Is it free? Yes — current conditions, forecasts, maps, and alerts are free for everyone.
How accurate is it? Forecasts come from Tomorrow.io with Open-Meteo as a fallback, cross-validated with community reports and stations. Forecasts are guidance, not guarantees — for critical decisions consult your national meteorological service.
Why can’t I find my location? Any valid coordinates work. Use the GPS button or search; brand-new places are created on the fly from your position.
Does it work offline? The app is installable (PWA) and shows an offline page without a connection, but live weather needs the network.
