Weather+
Weather+ is Bhalai Foundation's free weather-alert service: local alerts tuned to how weather affects your work and your family, sent in your language, anywhere in the world. Built for the people a forecast can protect - farmers, fishers, coastal families, hill communities and everyone who earns or learns under the open sky.
A day's warning changes what a day costs.
A forecast on time is one of the cheapest protections a family can have: it decides whether crops are sprayed before rain washes the money away, whether a boat goes to sea, whether a child travels to school through a flood, whether an elderly parent gets checked on during a heat wave. Weather+ exists to put that warning in the hands of people who can act on it - free.
Four steps, one minute to start

A one-minute form: your place, your work, your language.

Get alerts that fit
A daily morning digest, severe-event warnings, or both - tuned to how weather affects you.
Tell us what changed
Short seasonal check-ins turn alerts into verified impact we can publish honestly.
If the sky decides your day, Weather+ is for you
Farmers
Sowing, spraying and harvest windows. Frost and hail warnings before they cost a season.
Fishers
Wind and sea-condition alerts for the go/no-go call before fuel is spent.
Coastal families
Cyclone and flood warnings early enough to protect children, documents and homes.
Hill communities
Heavy-rain and cold-wave alerts for landslide-prone roads and long winters.
Heat-prone residents
Heat-wave and warm-night alerts for rescheduling work and checking on the vulnerable.
Outdoor workers
Construction, vending, delivery, salt pans, kilns - shift the day before the weather does.
Caregivers
Heat and cold health alerts that trigger a family check-in for elderly relatives.
Schools
District weather alerts for timing shifts, exam planning and parent communication.
Eighteen use cases and counting - the full list, and how we measure impact for each, lives on the Weather+ impact page. Somewhere else in the world with a different need? Choose “Other” on the form and tell us.

What we measure
Metrics publish with evidence as programs complete - no illustrative numbers are shown as real.
Weather+ adds to official warnings. It never replaces them.
During emergencies, always follow the official instructions of IMD, INCOIS, NDMA and your local authorities. Weather+ is a free companion service that helps warnings travel the last mile - it is not an emergency broadcast.
Forecast data comes from open meteorological sources (Open-Meteo). The service is free, and your details are used only to send the alerts you asked for - never sold or shared.
