Weather in the activities and in the calendar

Former Member over 15 years ago

Motionbased used to have weather info attached to activities which i found useful particularly when comparing pace and heartrate when temperature was different.
It would be nice if you added this.
Also, secondarily, if that info was then included in the calendar I could see at a glance when weather played a role in training.

Thanks

Vote me in: Add Weather Info to Activity Log

I find that for every activity log that I create, I google "weather [myZipCode]" and copy and paste the results into my log. It seems trivial for GarminConnect…

A lot of us have been waiting for this feature. Currently I'm putting all the weather data in the notes, so at least I have some online record of the weather conditions.

SportsTracks

If you want to do this then use sportstracks. I use it and it works very well.

It also very good at looking at other things to do with your training, its ten times better than garmin connect.

You can trial it before making a donation (I don't work for zone five).

I also would really like to be able to track weather information again. It was very useful in determining if there was a reason why I did better or worse.

Vote me in: Add Weather Info to Activity Log

I find that for every activity log that I create, I google "weather [myZipCode]" and copy and paste the results into my log. It seems trivial for GarminConnect to look this up from a web service based on the time and location of my activity and add it to my log automatically.

Temp, Wind speed and direction, General condition (e.g., Sunny, Partly Cloudy), and Humidity seems like it would be enough.

a plethora of weather APIs for Garmin Connect developers

Temperature and weather

I agree we need the temp and weather conditions on the garmin site. It looks like this is available to some users. maybe it is based on the type of device you are using to upoload to Garmin connect

Temperature Column

I would also like it if the weather information for my location and time could be automatically added to my workout. However, at a minimum, could you just add Temperature to the list of Column options so that I can see at a glance what the temperature recorded by my device was, without having to enter into each individual workout?
