I don’t hold the app fully responsible for this – with mountains to the west, Calgary’s a tough city to forecast for, and can be merciless to forecast models that are better suited to flatter regions. Using my weather modelling systems, I saw a streak of forecasting that all called for rain, while the Weatherman Umbrella App opts to call for sun. When it does, the numerical information’s reasonably accurate, although from a conditions perspective, there have been some lapses. The Weather function on mine takes a little while to load. When you’re in, there are several Menu choices: Weather, which is configured to your location, or wherever you like My Umbrellas, which has a neat feature I’ll chat about in a minute, Notifications, which is where you schedule the app’s delivery, and Settings, which is where the legal stuff is, and you can adjust between Celsius and Fahrenheit. My takeaway is that the app requires a decent deal of processing power for a good phone to use. The app can be up in seconds, but there have been occasions where I get a “white screen of death” and I am required to restart the app for it to function. The app itself does not get along well with my phone.
The going expression here is “If you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes.” Neat! I want several elements to be borne in mind in this discussion: first, I’m operating on an iPhone 5S. As a weather specialist, it’s been fun having the Weatherman Umbrella app on my phone, since I get another opinion on forecast conditions for that evening, and because my phone tells me if I need to grab my umbrella on the way out the door. The Weatherman Umbrella is, in a word, fantastic. Hold it straight, friends! It’ll catch a breeze.
I tested in 43 km/h peak wind in a field near my house. The industrial-strength fiberglass frame is designed to prevent inversions and is all you need to turn your less-than-40-pound toddler into Mary Poppins in a strong wind (NOTE: DO NOT DO THIS).
Let’s, for a moment, ignore the extras that this device brings to the table, and “brass tacks” the basic function: the Weatherman Umbrella is going to keep the rain off. If there was a Roomba knockoff called “The Plumber” that also plunged the toilet, I’m sure more than a few tradespeople would have something to say about it. Probably a natural human response to items named after your profession. More information on the entire Weatherman Umbrella Arnold Palmer Collection can be found here.Alright, let’s get one thing out of the way right now: I don’t like feeling replaced. Each golf product also includes a pocket inside the canopy for tees and gloves, as well as a silicon coated rib to hang your towel on – eliminating worry about it slipping off and getting wet. Specific to the golf umbrellas, a new smaller yet still automatic handle has been developed that will universally fit every pushcart used on any golf course. A special water-repelling technology is used for fast drying, an ergonomic handle for a comfortable grip and reflective accents for safety are all included, and each is covered by a lifetime warranty. The new designs bring everything a Weatherman Umbrella customer expects as the company continues to deliver sturdy and substantial products designed with not only industrial-strength fiberglass framing to withstand winds up to 55 mph and repel the rain, but also UPF 50+ coverage within the fabric for when the sun’s rays are really heating up. Palmer’s legacy is one that reaches beyond the golf world and we’re fortunate to play a small role in keeping his story alive.” “We’re so grateful to be partners with the team at Arnold Palmer Enterprises and we’ve thoroughly enjoyed bringing the Arnold Palmer Fairway Camo and Arnold Palmer Micro Drink designs to life,” said Tyler Kupper, Partner at Weatherman Umbrella. The Arnold Palmer Micro Drink is available in both Collapsible ($79) and Golf ($104) sizes. The micropattern showcases tiny umbrellas as well as drink glasses, bottles and lemon wedges of the famed Arnold Palmer drink. Stirred from the legend’s favorite beverage, the Arnold Palmer Micro Drink features a tone-on-tone design for an elevated nod to The King’s lasting legacy. The umbrella featuring holes from Bay Hill Club & Lodge, among others, is available in both Collapsible ($79) and Golf ($104) sizes. The Arnold Palmer Fairway Camo is inspired by the most extraordinary courses designed by The King himself, bringing the most iconic holes to life on a canopy built for the most tumultuous of the back nines. NEW YORK – Weatherman Umbrella today introduced the latest designs in its award-winning line of Arnold Palmer themed golf umbrellas and the two new designs are available for purchase at today.
