Simple weather reading
Conditions without the effort story
- One moment or a few general conditions
- The same summary for every sport
- A fixed format, separate from performance
Route weather, effort and memorable places, directly in Strava
Every Strava activity finally tells what really mattered.
After every activity, MetricSky writes one compact summary: route weather and wind, performance and zones, then exposure — with climbs and remarkable places on their own line.

Beyond a weather reading
Context that actually explains your activity.
A temperature at the start does not describe the effort, estimated wind throughout the activity, or places along the route.
MetricSky
One sport, weather and route summary
- Conditions sampled along the track and wind relative to your movement
- Zones, power, GAP, VAM, climbs and places tailored to each sport
- Custom order, format and metrics while preserving your own text

The useful bits
The right data for every sport.
Each sport starts with a useful selection. Choose whether effort or weather comes first; exposure indicators follow.
Cycling
Power, FTP zones and headwind
Weighted power, W/kg, cadence, time in Z1–Z7, gradient, climbs and the share of your route spent into a headwind.
Running
Pace, GAP and heart-rate zones
Fastest pace, GAP, running power and Z1–Z5 distribution, completed by heat and humidity context.
Trail and hiking
Climbs, VAM and remarkable places
Elevation, biggest climb, VAM, passes, summits and the conditions encountered before dark or in the rain. Landmark recognition depends on the catalogue and route accuracy.
Water sports
Pace, stroke rate and weather
Swimming pace, stroke rate and heart-rate zones when recorded, alongside route weather.

Questions
Clear by design.
Strava already shows weather. What is different?
MetricSky connects conditions to the route and effort: headwind, zones, power, climbs and remarkable places join one customizable summary—not just a weather reading.
Will MetricSky erase my activity description?
No. It replaces only the stable MetricSky block and preserves all unrelated text.
What if another app also writes to the description?
MetricSky replaces only its own delimited block and preserves everything else. The preview always shows the final text before a manual update.
What happens when an activity fails?
Recoverable failures are retried automatically with backoff. You can also retry only failed activities from the dashboard.
Which sports are supported?
Running, cycling, trail, hiking, swimming and water activities have dedicated selections, while other activity profiles use the customizable catalogue.
Is the beta really free?
The public beta is free, with no payment or account cap. Description enrichment, history and statistics are included. Only manually granted Premium accounts can hide the MetricSky credit during beta. We will clearly announce any future change.
Can I delete my data?
Deleting your account erases your activity history and MetricSky settings. Disconnecting Strava stops processing but keeps that history.
Is weather sampled only at the start?
No. MetricSky can sample start, middle and end, approximately hourly or at a safe custom interval.
