Weather Forecast, Rainfall, Wind Warnings, Tide Times & More
Great News! A few weeks ago we announced our weather overlay was on the way. It has now been released and is included in the latest version of the app, free for all Premium Club Members.
You can now see a 7 day weather forecast for each campsite, along with rainfall predictions and wind warnings so you can plan your trips better, or know when to bring in the awning.
We also have tide times available for the keen fishers and even a sunset and sunrise function so you can capture those magic moments.
For access to all weather functions, head on over to your app store and update the latest version of the FRC app.
