Our astro feature
Tips for summertime stargazing

As autumn quickly approaches, warm nights will soon be coming to an end. Now is the time to get in some summertime stargazing with our astro feature.

Summertime is fantastic for stargazing, and if you are planning to make the most of the warmer weather, our app can help you plan your sky-viewing schedule.

First, you'll want to make sure the sky is clear enough to see those astronomical delights. Our WeatherRadar and hourly forecasts make it easy to determine when your skies will be clear and whether you'll need a light jacket.

Next, look for a viewing spot away from light pollution. Bring a blanket or reclining chair to stay comfortable, and give your eyes 20-30 minutes to adjust to the darkness fully.

Finally, use our app's astro function (under the webcams and above the water information and UV index) to get the details on sunrise and sunset times and moonrise, moonset, and moon phase information.

Super Typhoon Bavi threatens Taiwan. 155 mph winds. . Weather Videos. Wednesday, July 8, 2026
The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
