Mercury Weather 2.0

Release Date: August 30th, 2023

What's New?

Mercury 2.0 introduces Trip Forecast! This one’s been in the making for a while, and we’re so excited to finally release it.

Trip Forecast lets users enter their upcoming trips in Mercury. Once the trip is coming up, the weather at the destination will automatically show as part of the daily forecast timeline.

As part of this update, we’ve also added our first batch of custom app icons, added more weather details to the daily forecast, and improved a bunch of other things!

Some Background

Trip Forecast is a feature that started (like so many) with the question, "How hard could it be?". With a trip coming up, we thought it was kind of silly that our daily forecast showed the weather for where we were right then rather than where we'd be during our trip. The plan was to quickly build the feature in a week or two… Fast forward a "brief" six months, and here we are, finally ready to ship it.

The feature evolved quite a lot as we used the prototype builds over the months. We're now supporting multi-day and multi-leg trips (even for trips that cross time zones and date boundaries), as well as day trips, including special behavior for arriving at a destination early, leaving late, or skipping a trip altogether.
