Nomad Weather Map
Pick your next city by the weather it actually gets, month by month. For digital nomads and anyone working remotely.
What is this?
I'm Mario, and I built this map for myself. Every few months I had to decide where to go next, and I always ended up with fifteen tabs open comparing average temperatures. So I put the data in one place: 335 cities, each with twelve months of temperature, rain, wind and air quality, plus what it costs to live there, how the internet is, and how many coworking spaces it has.
Whether you're picking your next base or lining up several stops, the map shows you at a glance which cities have the weather you want in the months you have in mind. Open one and I'll tell you how its whole year behaves.
How it works
Real weather data
Monthly averages for temperature, rain, wind and air quality. I take them from weather stations and public datasets, and check them against each country's weather service.
Climate search
Tell me the weather you're after and the cities that fit light up on the map, month by month. I never hide any of them — I just highlight the ones that suit you.
Travel lists
Save cities, sort them by how sure you are about each one, and jot down whatever you need to plan the trip.
Planning together
Share a list with whoever you're travelling with and plan it together, each from your own phone.
How the climate match works
You tell me the weather you want: a temperature, how much rain you'll put up with and, if they matter to you, wind or air quality. You pick the month or months of the trip too. Then I compare each city against its own monthly averages. A few degrees either side of your temperature cost nothing. Rain only counts once it goes past what you said you'd accept. And if you pick several months I go with the worst one, because you'll be there for that one too. You see the result as colour, from slate (not your thing) to coral (exactly what you asked for). No city ever disappears from the map — the ones that don't fit just go quiet.
Who is it for?
For anyone whose choice of where to live or travel depends on the weather: remote workers chasing warm winters, surfers chasing wind, families avoiding extreme heat, or retirees after a mild climate all year round.
What gets added next is mostly decided by the people who write to me. Almost every new city is here because someone asked for it.
Where the data comes from
The climate figures are historical averages, not forecasts: they tell you what September is usually like there, not whether it'll rain next Tuesday. They come from weather station records and public datasets (the ERA5 and MERRA-2 reanalyses, and CAMS for air quality), and when the sources disagree I check them against the country's weather service. Cost of living, internet speed and the number of coworking spaces I gather from public sources and review by hand: they're estimates for comparing cities against each other, not a quote.
Hi, I'm Mario
Indie developer, nomad and a pretty serious weather nerd. I build small tools that respect big things: your time, your data, and your freedom to just go. I run this map on my own, so if something's broken or missing it's probably on me. Write to me and I'll fix it.
Places are not products
A card with twelve numbers is convenient for choosing and very easy to mistake for a catalogue. The cities on this map are somebody's home, and that felt important enough to deserve a page of its own.
I don't sell your data
This is free and I want to keep it that way. I don't sell your personal data, I don't share it, and I don't trade it for anything. The site pays for itself with ads, not with your information. Your lists, your preferences and your account are yours. Full stop.
