Poncho Says Stay Bundled Up This Evening & Prepare For Mid-50s Loveliness Tomorrow (Partner Post)
Have you ever been caught in a surprise gully washer, as you race home with the kids from Slope Park, or found yourself wondering if the neighborhood’s alternate side parking rules will be affected by the latest snow forecast?
Enter Poncho, a personalized weather service with a personality. Instead of providing you with more data and visualizations to interpret, it gets to know you — when you wake up, how you commute to work, if you have pets to walk — and then gives you personalized advice and delivers it straight to your inbox or phone. There’s no app to install, no graphs to interpret. Poncho will tell you just what you need to know to get your day started, and nothing more.
How it works: Simply visit Poncho, then enter your name and answer a few questions about your daily routine. Then decide if you want your forecast delivered to your inbox or via text message (or both!), and you’re set! You will start receiving forecasts the very next day.
